Presumed non-native speaker.  "Track record" was meant, I guess.

He didn't specify what the "rDNS" changed from or to (but we can infer
the latter).  Since changing "rDNS" did the trick, I guess that after
the hardware update, the PTR was invalid by all definitions proposed
in this thread.  (And by the RFC definition -- I didn't have the RFC in
front of me when I posted.  *None* of us are reliable witnesses!)
