something *very* strange is going on. the worldnic servers have been giving delayed or no results for days now. and nsi is hoping we and the wsj/nyt won't notice. I agree 100%. I'll bite.but it's probably time for us all to dump symptoms here and figure it out as a community, as the dog with the bone ain't 'fessing up. randy I couldn't resolve ns*.worldnic.com domains until I finally bit the bullet, and unblocked port 53 TCP from my DNS server. Then it worked fine. (after a few tries) I'm using BIND 9.2.4 without the eye pee vee six stuff compiled in. Because I don't want to start something; No discussion about me blocking port 53, ok? I got tired of gobs of log files of script kiddies trying to download my domains 5 years ago... I actually READ my logs.... besides, I had to keep the linux boxes safe from the tyranny of bind 8 until they got upgraded. :-) -Jerry
