Is the party over? well it could be for many of the Opennap servers... IF the operators fail to PAY...

DNS2GO the up to now free for non-commercial use, domain provider, are about to instigate a charge...

EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2002, Deerfield.com will adopt a PAID-MODEL FOR DNS2GO SERVICE. This step is necessary to continue bringing DNS2Go customers the high quality service that has been our mission.

Ok so its only $9.95 per year, thats no problem, well not for US
residents, but their free service appears in many of the opennap server addresses World-wide, and paying up is not just a question of the money, its more a question of getting the money THERE...

Banks over here charge an arm & a leg to provide you with a 10 buck note, and I'm always cautious about using credit cards to buy services abroad from the UK..

We shall see what happens in October, I wonder if the other domain operators have gone, or are going this way too...?
