I reckon it may be because the MilNet Domain Maintainers for the services are loathe to give out a .mil address to a commercial ISP. We ran into that with a client from the Army. They wanted a virtual server, but the Army wouldn't assign a .mil address for them. -Carl -- ===================================================================== Carl Forsythe |Webmaster Monterey Bay Internet | carlf () mbay net | http://www.mbay.net | Somewhere there is someone, who can see the things that I see... =====================================================================
