Which probably explains the number of IP addresses in links on
http://www.st-pierre-et-miquelon.com/ . One of the IP addresses resolves
backwards, for example, to spm.pm, but this address doesn't resolve
forwards.
But how could they use .pm without AFNIC's consent? Isn't it they who feed
the root servers which enable people to do a DNS query on the .pm zone?
There was also a site I looked at where someone was complaining about the
deplorable state of Internet connections that appear to prevail there.
Cheers,
Philip
