True, but we'd have to try something that would be effective... Imagine how many of those incompetent ASN's still have _outdated_ technical contact email and phone numbers.. > > I like the idea of moving the gtld servers into such space.

It will break the ASN's who do not properly have updated filters. The only thing to be careful is a type of consequence where some of _your_ customers may attempt to get to one of the broken ASN's. DNS issue at the broken ASN's may cause few minor-to-medium oddities that may cause more phone calls on your end. -hc > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Jon Lewis [EMAIL PROTECTED]| I route > System Administrator | therefore you are > Atlantic Net | > _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________ > >
