Derek,
    To answer your questions:

/usr/vice/etc/ThisCell:
pitt.edu

Does that cell have data in /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB
[root@noc-wks-02 etc]# grep pitt.edu CellServDB
 >pitt.edu               #University of Pittsburgh
136.142.8.15                    #afs09.srv.cis.pitt.edu

136.142.8.21                    #afs11.srv.cis.pitt.edu
