Re: @home

["Casey Boone" <cboone@clearwaveonline.net>]

i think he means dns servers for him to use to resolve urls into ips

if this is the case then here is a list of dns servers i know of
204.248.93.13 - accessus
204.248.93.20 - accessus
208.235.1.2 - earthlink now (dont know if its still active)
12.147.61.2 - one of my dns servers
12.147.61.3 - same box, different network card

hope this is the info you need
