It's not clear that NeXT's internet machine is actually a NeXT machine. The machine at 129.18.1.2 claims to run 4.2bsd, so I'd wager that it's a VAX or somesuch. NeXT.COM doesn't accept connections on TCP port 79, so I doubt that there's a problem with their fingerd. Marty

Steve Jobs came to talk a the Nov. 17 meeting of the Berkeley Macintosh Users Group, and he said that when the virus/worm was going around the network, NeXT got the infection and it kept them busy for a while cleaning it up.

NeXT.com runs a sun 3/280 as their nameserver; I don't know about their
mail server. sunset.next.com is the 280.
