PS - when I do a whois on some 1, 2, and 3 digit ASN's that are less than 254, whois gives me an "A" domain in response. There IS an ASN 10, isn't there?

Yes there is; however, you should feed your query in as whois "ASN 10" to get the proper response back: falcon:/usr/local/bak/src/gnu# whois "ASN 10" CSNET Coordination and Information Center (CSNET-CIC) (ASN-CSNET) BBN Systems and Technologies, Inc. 10 Moulton Street Cambridge, MA 02138 Autonomous System Name: CSNET-EXT-AS Autonomous System Number: 10 Coordinator: Nugent, William H (WHN2) whn@bbnplanet.com 413/296-4780 Record last updated on 10-Jan-91.
