Thanks for the reply, Stephen.
`traceroute login.physics.unc.edu' fails from Linerva because we can't
reach ns1.physics.unc.edu. to resolve it, but tracerouting 152.2.5.5
drops off after el-loco-v1627.net.unc.edu:

(mtr, using ICMP tracing, gets the same result).
I see the same behavior for at least 152.2.5.4, 152.2.5.5, 152.2.5.15
(ns1.physics.unc.edu), 152.2.5.16 (ns6.physics.unc.edu), and 152.2.4.9
(www.panic.unc.edu).
I've attached the output of 'ssh -vvv 152.2.5.5', but it's
uninteresting.
