I wonder if a finders fee could be setup by ARIN, ie 50% ofr the allocation :).. I personally know people that have /16, who either haven't routed them or are routing them but using 1-2 IPs... I think the angry mob approach is the best way to deal with the /8 & /16 squatters.. :). Mark -- Mark Segal Director, Data and Internet Planning Axxent Corp.
