Hello, It appears that the .edu TLD is now administered by Educause (http://www.educause.edu) and not Verisign (authorized by the Dept. of Commerce last April). However, the verisign-grs system has not been updated, despite notifications to Verisign. As a result, if you attempt to follow the crsnic.net delegation tree, you will have whois data returned by Verisign that claims to be authoritative, but is incorrect and out of date. Don't use it. If you need to track down whois data for any .edu, either connect to their port 43 server at whois.educause.edu, or their web interface at http://www.educause.edu/edudomain/ Whois-servers.net has been updated correctly and GeekTools SuperWhois will be updated during the day tomorrow (Wed 02/01/02). -- Rodney Joffe CenterGate Research Group, LLC. http://www.centergate.com "Technology so advanced, even we don't understand it!"(R)
