Well, looks like it's business as usual in the government.

I think we should queue this for a release of the "whois"
clients.  I wonder how often the Internet intends to change
contractors...  -Ron

We have been operating for two weeks now at the new InterNIC
Registration site.  Mailers, name servers, etc. all seem solid,
so please begin sending your registrations and queries to:

   hostmaster@internic.net

other ways to reach us are:

   whois  -h rs.internic.net
   voice  (703) 742-4777
   fax    (703) 742-4811
   post   Network Solutions, Inc.
          InterNIC Registration Services
          505 Huntmar Park Drive
          Herndon, VA 22070

Registrations that are in-process will be completed and any
that you send to hostmaster@nic.ddn.mil will be forwared to
hostmaster@internic.net

Note the new "whois" site.  The "whois" database at the
nic.ddn.mil will rapidly become out-of date for "civilian"
registrations, so please use the new site when making
whois queries. (198.41.0.5)

An RFC will be out in a day or two, giving more detail.

   Regards, Duane
