The domain of Panix, one of the first NY ISP's, has been hijacked by
persons unknown. A whois of panix.net will show what the records should be,
a whois of panix.com will show what they currently are.
How this exactly happened is not yet clear. However, this is the type of
thing that scares me about the current transfer method. The fact that
someone can flasify a transfer request, and if somehow I do not get the
notification, the transfer will happen anyway is a BIG problem.
Yes, someone can get in trouble if it happens. That will be small comfort
when I am out of business because my domain has been down.
Ross -- a comment from you has been forwarded to Nanog. (see
http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/, specificly
http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/msg04275.html ) It isn't very
flattering, hopefully you're just cranky in the morning ? :-)
