Hotmail and player.play.it
I just ran into this problem about two or so weeks ago hoping it would go away. I am denying 'player.play.it' [currently resolving to 67.148.71.9, 67.148.71.11] on my Juniper firewall. However I get denied navigating to 'hotmail.com' [policy says it is 67.148.71.11 causing the trouble] I don't see any player.play.it references in the html or anything (including the live.com sites unless I am missing something). Any hotmail admins fix this or something or maybe I am missing something else. -- Thanks, Joe

Yes, I figured; I was 'scared' to do a whois and I appreciate the confirmations. I am just using the basic built-in Juniper object for domain deny/reject policy because that is all this shop has. It's not the first time, but I was hoping for another answer instead of SOL -- Thanks, Joe On Thu, Mar 25, 2010 at 8:16 PM, Matthew Petach <mpetach@netflight.com> wrote:
