Guys as per a couple of previous posts:
1) the original customers /were not/are not/and have never/ spammed a
"bit"
2) bbnplanet is part of GTE backbone
3) I thought my customer had a leased line; it is dialed with a fixed IP
4) A couple of very helpful posts to me and 30 seconds to get through to
the GTE NOC returned me to the land of the (somewhat) clueful.
5) Whatever the history of starnetinc past/present/future this
particular event had nothing to do with spam, rbs, or the like.
