[SAGE] Check your domains!

[Matthew Crosby <mcrosby@marthon.org>]

Yesterday morning, the domain for one of the oldest ISP's around (panix.com)
was somehow hijacked to a new registrar, new IP's & so on.  Both the old and
new registrars apparently aren't being very co-operative in fixing it.
(Does anyone know anyone who works for Melbourne IT?  They are folks who 
it was transferred to).

I can't comment on any more of the details (not being involved except as
a panix customer), but I think this illustrates some lessons that we should
all consider.  If it can happen to them, it can happen to anyone, and the 
repercussions are downright scary to think about.

Make sure your domains are locked.  Keep an eye on your expiry dates. (I 
don't think that's what happened here, but there have been some famous cases
where it DID, so It's worth mentioning).  Try and get involved in fixing
what is broken system.
