Perhaps this is the problem:

xwin@wawasee: {1} telnet media.dcoisp.net
media.dcoisp.net: No address associated with name

xwin@wawasee: {2} host -a media.dcoisp.net
Trying null domain
rcode = 3 (Non-existent domain), ancount=0
Trying null domain
rcode = 3 (Non-existent domain), ancount=0

xwin@wawasee: {4} host -a dcoisp.net
Trying null domain
rcode = 0 (Success), ancount=1
