# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1	alpha.domain2.com localhost
64.62.144.106	alpha.domain2.com localhost

If anyone has sysadmin access to a server running CPanel, I would be
happy do some trouble-shooting on the problem.

error with Exim. It could be something as simple as a timeout value.

Are the servers also running a local DNS server - and set to resolve
using 127.0.0.1 as the primary nameserver? There are so many things that
could be a problem...
