It looks like reverse DNS is failing. The place you work doesn't have
reverse DNS set up, or is set up wrong for 208.49.230.99. At least I
can't get any info in 208.49.230.99 from here. Dig times out. But I
can get info on 208.49.230. I do not think you could ssh to anything
not on the company network.
