They gave no particular reason.  I figured I'd ask ya'all before I
started to push back and use phrases like 'silly', 'ridiculous', and
'pointless' in my argument to them.

Thanks,
Craig

Sounds ridiculous...radb mirrors arins db, I don't see why they are
trying to force you to use radb.

You can query whois.radb.net and you will be able to see your arin
objects...

Did they give you a reason on WHY you should have to use RADB?

Hi,

I recently ran across a situation where a large ISP only accepts IRR
entries generated by RADB to build their path filters.  I use the
ARIN
Routing Registry.  Is this a common practice?  Should I convert over
to
RADB?

Thanks,
Craig
