Heres an interesting question Matt, maybe you can provide me with a worthwhile answer. Last night, I finally got around to registering a .org domain for my use. It took only 20 minutes from the time which I registered it, gave it my DNS servers, and paid for it, to when it was resolveable everywhere in the world. Thats *20* minutes. Why does it take NetSol 24/48/72 hours to do the same thing? -------------------------- Brian Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group Open Solutions For A Closed World / Anti-Spam Resources http://www.2mbit.com ICQ: 8077511 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Larson" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 5:50 PM Subject: Removal of wildcard A records from .com and .net zones > > VeriSign was directed by ICANN to suspend the Site Finder service by > 0100 UTC on Sunday, October 5.
