Not sure but do you think it could have something to do with the following??? near 'root.tcpipinc..servermatrix.com.': empty label
That was the name that the server company gave the box. I have had them change the name of the box to wh2.tcpip-inc.com but I see that it still shows up here as root.tcpipinc..servermatrix.com
