The machine hydox-cookie is hacked. I just logged in and found the
following in /etc/named.local:

hydrox-cookie% cat /etc/named.local
hydrox-cookie.cluster.ns.athena.mit.edu 9999999 HS TXT "syslib m11-dmusys"
hydrox-cookie.cluster.ns.athena.mit.edu 9999999 HS TXT "lpr linus"

That is why you are getting m11-dmusys.

Someone should remove /etc/named.local; touch /etc/named.local and
reboot the machine.

I suggest that unless someone is actively maintaining hydrox-cookie,
that you revert it back to a public configuration as no-one over there
seems to be dealing with the privatization issues. (based on yesterdays
problem report from the same machine)
