    JK> sure... as for instance z1.fidonet.org, etc. do each return an ip..   
      
   i can't get any of z[1234].fidonet.org to return anything other than NXDOMAIN   
   or unknown host...   
      
   *.fidonet.net all return the same address but that's the one that was grabbed   
   by the domain squatter, right? that's what lead to binkp.net being created for   
   looking up fidonet f.n.z addresses...   
      
   i gotta check why i'm unable to find fidonet.org subdomains :(   
      
   [time passes]   
      
   ok, i figured it out...   
      
            fidonet.org      unknown host; mail handled by another;   
        www.fidonet.org      85.94.204.146   
         z1.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
     www.z1.fidonet.org      85.94.204.146   
         z2.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
     www.z2.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
         z3.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
     www.z3.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
         z4.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
     www.z4.fidonet.org      unknown host; no mail handlers;   
      
   it is sad that no other zones have a web presence... i used to have a list of   
   nets with web presence but so many of them fell over dead that i haven't even   
   bothered to try to keep up with them any more :/
