Not exactly this sort of situation, no. I do know that we've had hosting customers that have had domains with melbourneit.com as the registrar that they were unable to ever transfer to another registrar (despite emails, faxes, and phone calls; IIRC one customer tried for most of a year to transfer a domain to another registrar or at least get the nameservers changed without success). -- Chris Adams <cmadams(a)hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.

Man accused of 'zombie' web blitz

Given the amount of discussion on botnets and zombies, I thought this article was rather interesting: "A man has been arrested on suspicion of launching attacks over the internet after an operation between Scottish police and the US Secret Service." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/4175801.stm - ferg -- "Fergie", a.k.a.

Of course, this would have to be periodically updated. By this, I mean a separate overlay document for their entire router product line. This would be very helpful to operators and integrators who get asked about minimum configurations fairly frequently...
