Alexander, My nameserver tells me that www.lpf.org maps to 128.52.46.33 (command: nslookup www.lpf.org). The domain information registered at the internic follows:
-----Begin----- League for Programming Freedom (LPF-DOM) 1 Kendall Square #143 PO Box 9171 Cambridge, MA 02139 Domain Name: LPF.ORG Administrative Contact: Anderson, Dean A (DA31) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 603 598 9405 603 479 3688 603 479 3688 (FAX) 603 598 1164 Technical Contact, Zone Contact: Friedman, Noah (NF42) [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1 512 257 0967 Record last updated on 22-Dec-96.

Please use the whois server at nic.ddn.mil for MILNET Information. -----End----- That information was obtained via the whois client (command: whois -h rs.internic.net lpf-DOM). I tried to snag their web server, but I couldn't make a HTTP connection to www.lpf.org. Ping tells me the host www.lpf.org, aka 128.52.46.33, is unreachable. My guess is that somebody tripped on the ethernet cable. Either that or it's plugged into a voice jack and nobody noticed. :P I'd start by sending some email to the Technical Zone Contact, Noah Friedman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. There is a service out in la-la land called DejaNews, by the way. You can read and post to Usenet through their web site for free. Well, I didn't see any prices and I did it for free. :) The URL is "http://www.dejanews.com".
