You need to set the option "type=mx" when asking your nameserver
about commodore.com machines; you can reach them by mail, but they aren't
really on the Internet.
$ nslookup
> cbmvax.commodore.com
*** No address information is available for cbmvax.commodore.com

cbmvax.commodore.com preference = 20, mail exchanger = rutgers.EDU
rutgers.EDU inet address = 128.6.4.7
rutgers.EDU inet address = 128.6.21.9
