Thanks to all who helped resolve this issue. Our mail people confirm that they are able to successfully sync with spamhaus Scott C. McGrath On Fri, 10 Sep 2004, Justin Ryburn wrote:
This should be corrected now. I still cannot ping the host in question but I am guessing that spamhaus has ICMP filters on their stuff. It is definitely routing to the correct place now. Our customer service department is following up with the customer (spamhaus' provider) to make sure they are seeing everything correctly.

The loop seems to be in AS 2828 (XO Communications) with router at 64.1.2.38.

We are originating traffic from AS11 and we are seeing an apparent
loop
downstream from the router listed in the header when attempting to connect to rsync1.spamhaus.org.
Is this problem unique to us or are others seeing the same behavior. Scott C. McGrath
