is 13.252.55.117 the same as 1279uds.abc.com? Is port 6000 reachable
from splhrl81.abc.com? Maybe there is a firewall blocking the connection.

The hostname for the ip address was right on my windows machine but different on the dns server checked by splhrl81 so there's a problem with that DNS server. But, why is XFree trying to get my hostname when I've already given it my IP address?
