So I suspect your whois is broken.
Doh! My apologies for the fat-fingering / gibberish... looks like this year's flu has really knocked me for a loop or whatever... (though now this is reduced to why I was getting lame server delegation warnings (for this zone) during this same incident -- though that's hardly something for NANOG, itself). Thanks for the "kick in the head," Phil... Regards, Russell -- Russell M. Van Tassell russell@cscorp.com
