  Sorry for the mistype on my part as it relates to "Whiis".  I did mean
to type "Whois".  I was pointing towards fibertel.com.ar in my query.

  Well you know as well as I do that DIG will give any of the results
you choose for DIG to provide.  Hence it is not a very accurate
tool to use for this query.  I am checking into in further however to
assess where the problem well be.

  Well than it is likely that this is the case it is understandable
why it is not reachable, and therefor likely a lame delegation.

 Fibertel.com.ar does not resolve.  Nor is it available via Whois.  Hence the
problem I believe here.  But I am still checking.  I shall update everyone on my
findings as I come across them.

  Yes, understood Bill.  But if proper tunneling is done, there should be
no resolving problem.  And it appears that there is.  AOL cannot resolve
this address either.
