I think it's still a network problem. Although there is a bit of a load right
now:
} Respond, pass, forget, quit, or ? for more options? !uptime
} 5:33pm up 28 days, 7:32, 37 users, load average: 12.98, 11.40, 11.11

Possible DNS problem: a correspondent reports that he cannot
reach grex.org. I have no difficulty, but maybe parts of the
network discriminate against Dotster-registered domains.

Could also be that the .org registry is moving from Networking Solutions
to Public Interest Registry (PIR). Things were supposed to be up and
stable by last night, but who knows?

In that case, use traceroute to find out where the packets are dropping.
We've been seeing network problems off and on for a while.

More info I was sent by my correspondent (though he does say
that he can *ping* grex.org):
whois grex.org @whois.crsnic.net
[whois.crsnic.net]
Whois Server Version 1.3
Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
for detailed information.
No match for "GREX.ORG".

Well, "whois -h whois.networksolutions.com grex.org" returns the right
information.

Well, I tried a whois against whois.crsnic.net and discovered that your
correspondent missed some vital information. Here is what I got:
} coll% \whois -h whois.crsnic.net grex.org
}
} Whois Server Version 1.3
}
} Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered
} with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
} for detailed information.
}
} No match for "GREX.ORG".
}
} >>> Last update of whois database: Wed, 29 Jan 2003 17:32:40 EST <<<
}
} The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .EDU domains and
} Registrars.
}
} coll%
That last little bit explains a lot.

If someone has trouble accessing grex.org, have them try cyberspace.org
instead and report if that works. Since they're on different registrars,
that will tell us if it's a registrar problem or something else.

control of all .orgs has moved to a central source... no?

The database was always maintained by a central source, but that central
source just changed.
This doesn't affect the fact that there are multiple *registrars* you can
buy .org domains from.

I mentioned this in the 'bummed' item, but maybe it belongs here, too:
ssh doesn't get the 'birthday' part of the motd.

I have used the Change program (a few months ago) to put polytarp on my do
not write/tel/chat/talk list but I still get tels. Why?

The change program said it was changing my .login file. I don't see polytarp
anywhere in the file.

Then the change program misspoke. What it changes is your .cfonce
file.

"whois" doesn't know about "cyberspace.org" either; the message at the
end does not mention .ORG (as noted in #126). DNS does know about grex.org.
This also works:
whois -h whois.pir.org grex.org
(but it's amazingly slow. Too many spammers harvesting contact info?)

Re: 133
I think if you put "cat /usr/local/lib/motd.birthday" into your
.login file (assuming csh) then you will see the motd.birthday file
even when sshing in. However, you'll then probably see it twice when
telnetting in.

"whois.geektools.com" works as a whois host for almost all registrars and
TLDs. (Not *quite* all -- there are a few that they can't support for one
reason or another.)
