|Dear customers,
|
|Please accept our sincere apologies for the recent DNS
|problems. One of the directors of TJ Network Services,
|William Walsh, was caught embezzling funds, and fraudulently
|misrepresenting us. He was removed from the company, and no
|longer has any affiliation with TJ Network Services
|whatsoever. Upon being evicted, he set about to sabotage the
|.TJ domain by having the primary nameservers IP addresses
|(ns1.nic.tj & ns2.nic.tj) changed to his own dial-up
|computer. This is what caused DNS problems throughout the
|.TJ name space, and in many other non .TJ names. These IP
|addresses have been changed back to their originals, and by
|now everything should be back to normal.
|
|So, .TJ has NOT been taken over, and remains in control of
|TJ Network Services (of 4065 Nth Seventh Street, Fresno, CA
|US). IANA has requested that we process no more new .TJ
|registrations until this matter is fully resolved, and we
|are honoring that request.
|
|Please note that because of this DNS sabotage, if you sent
|any email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or other TJNS staff, it is
|likely we did not receive it, so if you are in need of
|further assistance, please send your email again.
|
|Best regards and happy holidays,
|The Directors of TJ Network Services
| - Karl Watts, General Manager
| - Jon Hedley, Lead Hacker
