It wasnt just him. I can see in the log period when recusive lookups to arin were failing (connection timed out). There was definetly a problem 20 minutes ago. I can actually see two periods of about 5 minutes each separated by period of 5 minutes when it was partially working (some time outs still). I think there were under DoS attack or something similar. -- William Leibzon Elan Networks william@elan.net
