ARIN & re-using some /24s

Howdy. I have a number of portable /24s which had been deployed in the early days of the Internet to customers who do not use 'em any more. Of course we're supposed to turn in unused /24s and ask our transport providers for whatever space we need, but for a variety of reasons I'd like to re-use these blocks, and I'd sort of like the ARIN info to be correct on them -- not indicating they're in use by a company that went out of business years ago for instance. The last time I tried this, I got so much flack from ARIN that I gave up and left the block registered to the wrong organization, but persistence does usually pay off with them. If you have had any experience re-registering blocks to totally different organizations, that is, changing -all- of the info associated with a net block, I'd like to hear from you- experiences and the procedure you followed. Please reply directly. I'll summarize and post here next week. -- Daniel.MacKay () Dal Ca Network Operations Centre Manager 902 494-danm Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
