I think you had better talk to your network administrator or service provider to clear up your confusion... Apache has nothing to do with anything that you are talking about. Apache is software used for web servers. If someone somewhere uses it and something is broken, it has nothing to do with us.

I understand that when I enter Global.nws.net it should look it up and connect me to SCVONLINE BBS in the US, but instead it is looking it up and connects me to your web page, and to machine 206.85.117.142. Many people aroung the world depend on Global providing them with echomail networks, via Telnet, and to find you in their place has already halted the flowof network mail between the US and the UK for the 5 echonets I Hub for, I can only assume that the problem is the same with the other parts of the world that rely on Global as the World HUB. If you are not, as you claim at fault then pass my notes to earthlink.net as it is VERY rude to steal someone elses name. >Unformatted: >Last-Modified: Thu Jul 24 12:34:28 PDT 1997 17.142 instead , please put this right, it is very rude to steal someone elses name !!! Thank you.
