The problem isn't that snort.evilputty.com doesnt resolve, its that your CNAME points to pengu., not pengu.evilputty.com.

i fixed that 10 hours ago unfortunately it never propagated so i added it to my host list in godaddy, just woke up from my nap and its working again. i changed it from a cname to an a record, whatever its working now :) thanks!
