That's right, in TV ads... "Network Solutions activates more dot com domains than any other ISP"....."use Network Solutions, the dot com people." This actually raises an operational concern. A little traceroute will show you that www.networksolutions.com and the worldnic stuff are down the same pipes as the internic.net stuff. With the DNS problems of the past few days, one has to ask, would "internic" activities have worked just fine if Network Solutions had not been using some {small,large} amount of the bandwidth for their other commercial activities. Not that I hold out any hope of the two activities using separate facilities, but it would be nice. -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org Systems Engineer - Internetworking Engineer - CCIE 3440 Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request@tmbg.org, www.tmbg.org
