Hi Hank, Thanks for your email. The error message you received is normal, though it's understandable that it might be a little confusing. When a legacy Internet resource is covered by a contractual relationship, it receives the RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT maintainer, in addition to the End User's maintainer (as "mnt-by:"). For an object to be updated, only one of these two maintainers must pass the authentication. In this case, the update was not authenticated on your end, and so the error message is correctly telling you that neither our maintainer nor yours was authenticated. This legacy maintainer follows the same business rules as other RIPE NCC maintainers: - RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT can only be added or removed by the RIPE NCC - If RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT is present in AUT-NUM and INETNUM objects as MNT-BY, ORG-ID cannot be changed - If the ORGANISATION object is referenced in resources where RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT is present, then the "org-name:" cannot be edited by anyone other than the RIPE NCC. So this means that all other attributes can be updated with only the End User's maintainer and without involving the RIPE NCC. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
