From: Men & Mice Support Date: Tuesday, September 16, 2003 Time: 5:13:54 pm We are not going to endorse any such patch, since we have no control over them and since we're not about to write one of our own. If Verisign's action bothers you, solve the problem at the routing level, as Jer suggests. It won't affect users outside your network, but it's the only reasonably safe solution. Personally, I think some sort of URL spell-checker is a good idea. What they have at the moment seems like a good start. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice Customer Support Specialist Making DNS Easy At 1:45 PM -0400 9/16/03, Stonewall Ballard wrote: >Is there a M&M-approved way to work around the new Verisign wildcard?
