the main thing on linux systems was that DNS lookup stuff changed and IREX did
not come out with an update to fix that... as a result, IREX on *nix cannot
perform DNS lookups on today's *nix systems... that made it a lot harder for
operators because they had to manually look up a node's domain in the DNS and
put the IP number in the IREX record for that node... when the IP changes, they
have to dance that dance again...
