It looked like this during the tests:
10.225.72.5     xxx.xxx.xxx                  # baddns:1:2:4 devmon:model(compaq;server)

Ah I see. The "baddns" only tells how to handle failures of
the DNS check. You still need the "dns" to enable DNS checking
at all! So your entry should have been

10.225.72.5  xx.xxx.xxx  # baddns:1:2:4 dns devmon:model(compaq;server)
