Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2002 12:37:44 -0400 (EDT) From: Martin Hannigan <hannigan@fugawi.net> To: <nanog@merit.edu> In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.21.0206101726380.31290-100000@staff.opaltelecom.net> Errors-To: owner-nanog-outgoing@merit.edu The operational signifigance, security, and the latter, my personal need, have been addressed. The former was the intention, the latter became the issue. If for some reason security of ARIN <not necc. NetSol> isn't an on topic operational subject, feel free to slap me about. Thanks to Richard/ARIN for answering both aspects of the query. -M On Mon, 10 Jun 2002, Stephen J.
