[BALUG-Admin] AXFR failures from 198.144.194.238

[Michael Paoli]

Try again, and please reenable.

Looks like host providing 198.144.194.238 got wedged
(shown as "up", but was unresponsive).
That's been corrected now (swift kick to the
reset), so all should be well again.

Thanks - and thanks for catching and noticing the issue
(I hadn't quite noticed it myself yet - but certainly
would have by this evening, if not sooner).
