ASL is having communication problems: (I have omitted all the routing info here) Sean-Thomas Date: Tue, 06 Feb 2001 12:24:18 -0700 Attention all station operators, We have been experience some transient problems with our Internet connection which may be causing a few email kick backs from some of you. The problem appears to come and go, so you may be invisible to most of you. Please, if you do experience a message return, try again. We hope to have this problem solved very soon. Thank you Kent > >We have been experiencing a problem getting data in and out of the DOI Net >(Department of the Interior Network). This only affects some places some of >the time. The problem is that NASA is not advertising all the routes for >customers on the DOI Net. We have noticed that (here at ASL) that some email >from addresses in the East and overseas have not been arriving. > >This problem started about 6 days ago. The folks that maintain the DOI Net >have told me that they are working feverishly with NASA to fix these >problems. Attached below is the original message: > >Last night I determined that NASA was not advertising doi.net routes at >MAE East.

We also have a tentative arrangement with >DoD's DREN to proxy peer for us as well.
