Re: Arin Smack down?
Perhaps something I've mised, but is ARIN.Net no longer handling lookups? I usually use them to find offending users but got this when doing a lookup. No match for 64.124.168.60 I did have the same problem yesterday (Wednesday). Looks like it is working today. Maybe some leftover bug from their conversion to the new formats? Or just high load... you can try our ipinfo page, which caches whois queries. If you are lucky, someone else looked up the same ip... http://www.dshield.org/ipinfo.php?ip=64.124.168.60 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Collaborative Intrusion Detection join http://www.dshield.org msg06954/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Uh, well, no, AFAIK, it's a common practice (and a good idea, and depending on your RR, possibly a requirement) to SWIP allocations/assignments of /29 or larger. They're just following BCP. -j

How else would one prove utilization levels to ARIN when in need of additional cidr space? And... what privacy rules? I've yet to see a privacy policy published that indicates a firm will not share with it's affiliates/parthers information necessary for providing service.

--snip-- tried the link and entered my PacBell home DSL static IP address and was shocked to see my private name come up behind CustName field! Wrong Address though. From http://www.arin.net/library/guidelines/swip.html When registering residential customers, ARIN recommends the phrase Private Residence for the address. ISPs should provide the person's name, city, state, postal code and country to complement the private residence designation. FYI. -Patrick -- Patrick Muldoon, Network/Software Engineer INOC, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] Calm down -- it's only ones and zeroes.
Re: Arin Smack down?
Hi, Actually this is what I was also wondering - I thought that half the time LIRs don't register their assignments? Can anyone confirm this? Thanks, Harsha. I am shocked to see that there is a LIR that actually registers what they are supposed to (at least according to the RIPE region). Maybe not the same reason for shock though... - kurtis -

Re: Arin Smack down?
Thanks All for the response. Looks like the web interface (www.arin.net) is the problem. Thanks again!
