I think that htere is a fundamental problem.  It is that the machine has
been set up a greybruce.on.ca and yet that name doesn't point back to the
machine.  There are only 3 solutions that I can think of:

	1. ship the machine and do further testin/debugging remotely (this
	   is not as bad as it sounds -- we are pretty confident from
	   previous beta install that the machine will work pretty well
	   and we can do a pretty good job of remote support if necessary)

	2. get teh DNS entry for greybruce.on.ca to point to our IP
	   address -- this would allow furhter testing here, but due to
	   latencies in DNS propagation, could take a few days to take
	   effect (depends on the DNS setup for that domain)

	3. reinstall with our domain name -- I don't see the point, we
	   have already tested that configuration

As you can tell, I favour #1.
