[anaconda root@sharpie /]# nslookup 9.5.250.145
Server:         9.10.244.200

When vnc is brought up the following message is displayed:

Thanks for the patch! Committed to anaconda f17-branch:

  http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=anaconda.git;a=commitdiff;h=ef57e5e

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2013-05-10 00:34:34 UTC
(I'm going through old anaconda bugs). I can't test and confirm this one offhand, but I see the patch made it to anaconda f17 and master, so no reason to believe this wasn't fixed. Closing.
