Gotta go with Gordon here...to the end user, the problem is at the ISP. Whether it's with the ISP itself or upstream of the ISP with one of its providers is up to the ISP to chase down. Most decent ones will as it's very likely that if it affects one of their customers, it'll affect a lot of them. I just went through this as a peer of our ISP had a batch of circular routes in their BGP tables which caused lots of connection issues for us. Our ISP was clean, their peer was screwed up so they worked with the peer to get it solved. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - 500: Internal Fortune Cookie Error - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
