AMEN!

Nothing worse than a customer traveling that cannot access services. Just
yesterday I ran into an even worse evil... what appears to be blocked
inverse lookups at the router with GTE. Will have to check, but the user
that told me described things pretty well.

Have to check it out and most likely send some bitch mail about how to
filter the router the proper way.

The best one that I ran into with routing is a T3 going out and the IP
blocks are still announced to a 64K link. Talk about bottlenecks!
