RE: Appending to absolute name on failure

[Jack T. <j.t...@F5...>]

If you want the host name to be treated like an absolute name, you need
to provide an absolute name.

In other words, terminate your host name with a dot "."

So your code should be:
 Lookup lookup = new Lookup("2.1.2.1.5.5.5.5.1.4.1.1.e164enum.net.",
