I would go with highly unprofessional and very unlikely to motivate me to purchase connectivity from them, even if their network didn't suck. I know engineers and sales people have never gotten along, but perhaps there is a list better suited for clownstamping them and the companies who hire them? Perhaps the entire thread regarding unprofessional comments could go there as well, and to the appropriate HR departments? -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras(a)e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)

Outage notifications

Beyond getting on every single ISP's customer notification lists, is there a list that is dedicated to network outages? Or a website? It would be really helpful in my day job :-) Thanks! -Paul

Yup, it's Friday the 13th, Have several circuits down between Ohio and Illinois. We can confirm Broadwing long haul network is effected. Anyone else have any information? Broadwing queue hold times are excessive, thought someone else might have been able to get an ETR. K

John et all, 198.32.187.0 is exchangepoint IP space. At some time enkido was probably connected to MAE-E-ATM, then disconnected and returned their IP address to the IX pool. The IP was re-assigned to Exodus when they upgraded or purchased a second IX connect to MAE-E-ATM and DNS never updated for the .119. (There are many of them like that).

i've been trying to get through to nanog for months now to do a simple address change. of course i used their form correctly -- several times, in fact -- and i've exchanged emails with some lackey on the problem. once i made the problem clear, communications dropped off sharply. anyone know a contact with a clue? i'd rather get this done *before* the time runs out and i lose the name. thanks much. of course, please respond off-list. -t
