Hi Brian,

Jeff is out of the office this week, so I am filling in...

re:

OK.  Given that port 388 access is wide open on idd.cise-nsf.gov,
this tells us that the block is at or near your shop.

The ping doesn't tell us much other than your nameserver is able to resolve
idd.cise-nsf.gov into 192.12.209.62.

Again, we feel that the problem is on your end.  We have several .gov sites
feeding from idd.cise-nsf.gov with no problems.

Cheers,

Tom
