Zope does a so called double-reverse lookup to make sure one can
unduptfully reresolve the hostname to its ip-address again.
It asks first for the name to the ip-address. Then it asks for
the ip-address to this name.
The question is, where did you change the name? In DNS you have
to change it in both databases.
