Aha... I wonder if IE2 isn't recognising the virtual hosts and is
complaining about the domain name not matching the reverse DNS...
beo is currently hosted on evolt.org.uk's box, which, for hysterical
reasons[1], is canonically known as acornparenting.org.

[1] Specifically, we set it up in a hurry for a beo mirror, and it
needed a domain to itself. The one we had spare was that one (which is
one of mine). At the time, we didn't forsee the need for it to become
the main box for beo/leo/deo. We should probably fix it so that the IP
resolves to eouk.
