Curious - no one seemed to mention BBN Planet's "major" fiber cut yesterday. Their trouble system "shortcutted" calls to an automated message saying there were two major cuts in the Texas and Washington DC area. their ticket was #273439. As a BBN customer, we had trouble getting out of BBN all morning, and by early afternoon things were fine. Did anyone on the list see this sort of trouble? -Andy -- Andy McConnell アンディ マッコネル Network Architect, NTT Multimedia Communications Laboratories Freedom means that, in time of war, good men and women will be asked to risk their lives because we think it better to die free than to live as slaves.
