Are you sure you named it KTP, and not ktp.ci-test.CI_BHG?!?
BTW, ci-test is very odd in a network; ci_test would be OK, the
minus (in stead of underscore) can cause problems.


Perhaps you mean the other way around, the underscore being the odd character? RFC 1035 on DNS names (section 2.3.1. Preferred name syntax, http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1035.txt) calls for only letters, digits, and hyphens in network names.
