That is absolutely correct and there is no doubt about it. Some domains are registered within 20 minutes (with a ticket often arriving one day later). other domains (requested within the same hour) are registered one week later. For other requests no ticket nor anything after two weeks. Questions to hostmaster(a)internic.net are usually not answered. No difference if you use a premier partner channel or not. and if you get an answer from somebody at internic regarding the reason of the problems: lies all over the place (i don't invent this). Usually you are lucky and everything goes fast. But in many cases it is a despair. I know computers and databases have and make problems, much more then usually admitted. But openness is the condition for improvement. Please, Internic, come out and tell us: if everybody knows you are working to solve the problems it will be obvious that you need the money you get. chin up, Philippe, A-Z-Internet.com -- DOMAIN-POLICY administrivia should be sent to <listserv(a)lists.internic.net> To unsubscribe send a message with only one line "SIGNOFF DOMAIN-POLICY" For more help regarding Listserv commands send the one line "HELP" -- DOMAIN-POLICY administrivia should be sent to <listserv(a)lists.internic.net> To unsubscribe send a message with only one line "SIGNOFF DOMAIN-POLICY" For more help regarding Listserv commands send the one line "HELP"

Re: Where's 209.240.157.34 ?

John R Levine wrote >Where's 209.240.157.34 ? > >Got a spam advertising a web page there, ARIN claims it's not allocated >although all the space around it is. It routes through Tierranet. TierraNet (ASN 10732) is advertising 209.240.128.0/19, which includes 209.240.157.34 (ns1.netcolony.com) ARIN reports that they've only been allocated 209.240.128.0/20 and that the other half of the /19 that they're announcing (209.240.144.0/20) is unallocated. Perhaps ARIN has reserved the entire /19 for TierraNet, but only actually allocated the lower /20 to them? Perhaps TierraNet is announcing their /20 as a /19 to get past Sprint's route filters? -Richard

Alex, > Which version of peval do I have to run (3.xxx???) to work > with the production servers? 4.xxx doesn't work with RADB > etc. Our production server, whois.ra.net/43, is RIPE181 compliant until the community decides on a final transition date (hopefully this spring/summer). The ISI version 3.x tools are RIPE181 compliant and version 4.x are RPSL tools exclusively. Please let me know if you have any problems. regards, --jerry ps Unfortunately, ISI does not default to our server and you must specifically set a command line flag so the tools can parse the server output. Check the man page for the correct flag to select.
