Weirdly enough, it tries to do a reverse lookup on the name server

  Nslookup has done this forever.

Steve D's MWATCH (MULTINET Tunnel updater) uses NSLOOKUP to figure
out the new   IP address for the tunnel.

As I don't need the internal name server on GORVAX, I just set the
name server to 8.8.8.8 and everything works.

  So you're running an internal nameserver (bravo!) and your inverse
zone is hosed somehow?
