Pete, I don't know if it means anything, but the IP addresses for Ncepldm1 and Ncepldm4 differ in the second byte (Ncepldm1: 140.90.33.205; Ncepldm4: 140.172.17.205). The traceroute(1)s from here to them also diverge considerably. Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: VOV-751174 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
