Does anybody know what's up with TelstraClear. I can't get to their
nameservers from NZ or the US.

The first thing that leapt to my mind (and, of course, it is purely my personal opinion) was ... "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: In order to ensure excellent service to customers, we will require anyone who wishes our DNS servers to resolve their queries to enter into a DNS Resolution and Transit agreement with us." Which is, of course, entirely reasonable. I mean, after all, companies put considerable resources into provisioning and maintaining their DNS servers, and then you buggers just come along as damn well request info from them for _FREE_. Obviously, this ad-hoc, hobbyist, cowboy approach cannot be tolerated in a modern business environment. JSR
Even their status page works...
