two ip addresses on NIC card



The problem is that your reverse DNS pointer does not have a matching 
forward entry.

74.93.196.186 maps to 74-93-196-186-washingtondc.hfc.comcastbusiness.net

74-93-196-186-washingtondc.hfc.comcastbusiness.net does not resolve

To fix this you either need to have your ISP setup a DNS record from 
74-93-196-186-washingtondc.hfc.comcastbusiness.net back to 74.93.196.186, 
or change the reverse pointer to a functional forward entry.
