This is the URL the rack controller and the deploying machines will use to
talk to the region controller. You should make sure that from the machine
the snap is running on that domain is resolvable to this machine.

Also unless you are running your own reverse proxy to point to the MAAS
running at 5240 this will not resolve. You should update this url to be:

sudo maas config --maas-url http://maasmaster.andrews.edu:5240/MAAS
<http://maasmaster.andrews.edu/MAAS>

If that doesn't work then I would try to reconfigure this with an IP
address at first to rule out that the DNS lookup is causing you the issue.

sudo maas config --maas-url http://{ip-address}:5240/MAAS

Hopefully that helps.
