Several of our researchers have pointed out that sites in the .MIL TLD are
unreachable.   Did a nslookup and got a interesting result

> server ns.mit.edu
Default Server:  NOC-CUBE.mit.edu
Address:  18.18.2.25
Aliases:  ns.mit.edu

> www.army.mil
Server:  NOC-CUBE.mit.edu
Address:  18.18.2.25
Aliases:  ns.mit.edu

*** NOC-CUBE.mit.edu can't find www.army.mil: No response from server
> www.navy.mil
Server:  NOC-CUBE.mit.edu
Address:  18.18.2.25
Aliases:  ns.mit.edu

*** NOC-CUBE.mit.edu can't find www.navy.mil: No response from server

I know it's MIT's nameserver just wanted to be sure the problem was not on
our end.

Send Harvard/MIT jokes to me offlist

Back to the subject at hand is anyone else seeing the same issue with the
.MIL domain

Thanks in advance - Scott
