Hi,
There is a nightly cron job on ftp.internic.net that mirrors ftp.rs.interni=
c.net.
Said cron job was failing, likely due to the maximum number of connections =
limit being reached on ftp.rs.internic.net.
Folks at VeriSign said they would be temporarily raising said limit.
You will note that the the hints file on ftp.internic.net is now correct.
Sorry for any confusion this might have caused.
Regards,
-drc
