From what I understand of how ordb.org works, you *should* receive an
error unless the IP is an open relay that it has tested.
h24-76-43-2 -> ns1wh.vc.shawcable.net DNS C 1.179.239.204.relays.ordb.org.
Internet Addr ?
ns1wh.vc.shawcable.net -> h24-76-43-2 DNS R Error: 3(Name Error)
Shows that 1.179.239.204.relays.ordb.org. does not exist. if you go to
ordb.org and look up the ip 204.239.179.1, it will tell you that it is
not in the database.
So this looks to be normal operation.
