This is not what I'm seeing, out of my ~140 machines within 129.16.116 and
117 it is only two machines that is listed in relays.orbs.org
129.16.117.71 and 129.16.117.74. As all of the machines have identical
antirelaying rules I'm a little bit stumped, why these two and not the
rest?
If any of my machines are in fact relaying I wish to know about it so
that I can fix it but as Gunnar pointed out they are believed to be OK
and I have no idea where to even start looking...
