On the client, what is the ssh command you type in?
What is in the /etc/hosts file?
What is in the krb5.conf file?
Is nsswitch.conf mapping any hosts?
What does nslookup rsa01.security.lab.comcast.net show?
Is this a private network?
Are your DNS servers doing something special and actually returning
the name as 10.242.142.77?
A Wireshark trace might show what DNS is doing here.
