It sounds like the migration team overlooked something they should
have done.  I get this info for my IP address:

  inwap@inwap% /sbin/ifconfig -a | grep inet
        inet 130.94.177.175 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 130.94.177.175
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
  inwap@inwap% nslookup `hostname`
  Server:  inwap.com
  Address:  0.0.0.0

  Non-authoritative answer:
  Name:    inwap.com
  Address:  130.94.177.175

  inwap@inwap% telnet 130.94.177.175
  Trying 130.94.177.175...
  Connected to inwap.com.
  Virtual FreeBSD (inwap.com) (ttyp2)
  login: 

They all agree that my IP address is 130.94.177.175 and the NNTPSERVER
accepts it.
