I was going to say the same thing, but I'm probably not as believeable. ;) And it's UUNET. It'll remain UUNET until they turn off the last router. ericb -- Eric Brandwine | UNIX was never designed to keep people from doing stupid UUNetwork Security | things, because that policy would also keep them from ericb@uu.net | doing clever things. +1 703 886 6038 | - Doug Gwyn Key fingerprint = 3A39 2C2F D5A0 FC7C 5F60 4118 A84A BD5D 59D7 4E3E

Historically, BBN/Genuity/GTE/Verizon/Genuity... and Alternet/UUNET/MFS/Worldcom have been consistently the most responsive to security issues. Of course, they each have their good days, and their bad days. MCI was good, AT&T is improving. The most common problem is different carriers have different views on what is a "security" issue. And they each have their quirks on how you reach their security people. Often Abuse, Security and Legal are different groups of people, and its up to the customer to figure out how to navigate the corporate org chart.
