You bleeped out names and stuff. That's fine. Can you run this at the
command prompt, from either machine:

nslookup <memberservername>

And copy/paste the results? It looks like what's happened is the DHCP
lease for your member server expired at some point, and it renewed with
a different IP address. If you ever had a HOST record for the member
server, it will have been obsolete at that point.
