Why do you put a gatekeeper on an SE?  Is it a CE at the same time?

Anyway, your reverse DNS is wrong:

$ host bigmac-lcg-se2.physics.utoronto.ca
bigmac-lcg-se2.physics.utoronto.ca has address 128.100.190.42
$ host 128.100.190.42
Host 42.190.100.128.in-addr.arpa not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

That is the problem.
