>popper Unable to get canonical name of client

The machine where "popper" is running needs to use a nameserver that can
determine the hostname of the client, given its IP address.

In turn, this requires that the "reverse" DNS entry (the PTR record
in the in-addr.arpa domain) be defined for the client.
