Not for academic experience, but to encourage people to fix their broken filters. And while renumbering a large network might be non-trivial, changing the IP or adding an IP alias on 13 individual servers should be a trivial operation. > These folks are in the business of running a critical system that requires > 100% uptime for hundreds of millions of users, and they do a damned good > job. Let them do it in peace, and find some other "must have" service (like > porn) to put in 69/8. 100% uptime for the service, not for each individual server. So now the 69/8 holders, in addition to driving a campaign to get others to fix their networks, should offer free hosting to porn sites? How about free hosting for spamvertized sites?...oh wait, that might make the problem worse :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@lewis.org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
