-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 To clarify, I did a reverse name lookup on that ip address, which came back with the host name whois.ripe.net. I wasn't suggesting you do a whois search just that the host whois.ripe.net is registered in DNS at the ip address you specified. When I traceroute, it times out at psie.net - some European company (I'm in Australia and guessing it's some sort of backbone). Your traceroute probably times out at some point that is blocking the traffic (just a guess) - in this case the Gulf of Guinea. Although... Your in Germany right? When you say the Gulf on Guinea, do you mean in Africa? If so, I doubt packets from Germany to Amsterdam would travel though Africa. Lets hope not anyway! Sorry, I'm starting to ramble now, must be getting late. Paul.
