last i checked www.spicegirls.com wasn't on the exodus network. i think it's on netkonect.net whitehouse.com is on exodus though... ;) as per the contractual issues, all they told lowly engineers like myself was that we could disclose publicly the fact: 1. we have reached a solution with GTEi 2. it includes expanding ds3's with them 3. we're not buying transit or paying for peering 4. we're like friends and stuff now... ;) i'm sure when bowman gets up, he'll have something to say. he probably has a LOT more insight into #3 -dhiraj sr. systems engineer, exodus communications On Tue, 15 Sep 1998, Adam Rothschild wrote:
Hmm.. not to start another massive thread here, but I wonder if this means that Exodus is now paying for transit and/or peering?
Disclosure of this information is probally violation of the agreement, so unless you work for one of them, or know someone who does, you won't find out.
Indeed. Point well taken.
Still, I have a funny feeling that GTEI/BBN is being compensated royally for this. This would have never happened otherwise, methinks.
I doubt Mr. Curran is doing this simply to allow himself and his customers to continue accesssing quality Exodus-hosted content, such as the Spice Girls and whitehouse.com. Then again, I could be mistaken! :-)
