MessageAccording to the C&W engineer I spoke with,  C&W stopped =
announcing its routes.  So PSINET was unable to find the peering =
routers.  (deaf, dumb and blind).  A meeting was held last night between =
the two and a temporary agreement was reached.  Part of this agreement =
was that all routes would be back in place by morning.  Which they were. =
 They agreed that over the next 60 days they would meet and try to work =
out an more lasting agreement (what ever that means) to prevent this =
from occurring again.

Now that is the official words.  Here is my opinion.  Customers like my =
company, after getting slapped in the face last night with that crappy =
e-mail, responded like I did.  Either fix it or we would be order new =
T1's to replace C&W's.  This is exactly what I told them.  We are paying =
them good money to C&W and none of their customer base was even =
questioned how this would affect our local business.  I must tell you I =
really pissed this morning when they called me. It must have done some =
good.

        I just got off the phone with Cable & Wireless.  A 60 day =
continuation of peering with PSINET was reached last night.  The peering =
is back up and we can now find PSINET DNS server again.  More on this as =
I am made aware.
