Super.nu (or more precisely Fidelity Pacific owned by the same people as Super.nu) owns the servers there, and BestHost1 and other resellers sell it.</p> <p>----------<br /> -The Navigator<br /> <a href="mailto:twn.bb@usa.net">twn.bb@usa.net</a></p> Mon, 23 Aug 1999 22:04:00 +0000 thenav comment 1018094 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-hosting-and-domain-names/skyportnet-host-investigor-day-webmaster-night#comment-1018093 <p>The address registered for SkyPort.net is in the middle of nowhere in a town I lived in for a few years .... not likely a NOC.</p> Tue, 27 Jul 1999 16:52:00 +0000 kworks comment 1018093 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-hosting-and-domain-names/skyportnet-host-investigor-day-webmaster-night#comment-1018091 <p>The IP address is registered to Skyport and reserve IP DNS mapping is performed by Skyport. However it looks as if they run their own DNS servers and mail servers (from mailexchange records). The most obvious answer is that skyport provides co-location or leased lines, and since super.nu is not a multi-national company or as big as verio it would be unreasonable for them to own their own address space. Basically My guess is that they have their servers colocated in the Skyport NOC or have connectivity provided by Skyport, I doubt they are resellers. I have also managed to speak to reseller of super.nu, who claims super.nu are top of the chain. Why they decide to use a .nu domain though is strange, it doesn't exactly make a good impression.</p> <p>I could be wrong though <img src="https://www.webmaster-forums.net/misc/smileys/smile.png" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling" class="smiley-content" /></p> <p>----------<br /> Matt Freeman<br /> <a href="http://www.hostinvestigator.com" title="http://www.hostinvestigator.com">http://www.hostinvestigator.com</a></p> Mon, 26 Jul 1999 23:19:00 +0000 hostinvestigator comment 1018091 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-hosting-and-domain-names/skyportnet-host-investigor-day-webmaster-night#comment-1018090 <p>...and why fo most of them start with 'super'?<br /> JP</p> <p>----------<br /> The Webmaster Promotion and Resource Center.<br /> <a href="http://www.what-next.com" class="bb-url">http://www.what-next.com</a></p> Mon, 26 Jul 1999 23:11:00 +0000 JP Stones comment 1018090 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-hosting-and-domain-names/skyportnet-host-investigor-day-webmaster-night#comment-1018089 <p>After looking up Super.nu, I found that their nameserver was skyport.net. So I started looking in to skyport, and found a few other hosting companies using skyport as nameserver. Here's a few:<br /> <a href="http://superhosts.net/" title="http://superhosts.net/">http://superhosts.net/</a><br /> <a href="http://primetimehost.com/" title="http://primetimehost.com/">http://primetimehost.com/</a><br /> <a href="http://superiorhost.com/" title="http://superiorhost.com/">http://superiorhost.com/</a><br /> <a href="http://superbhost.net/" title="http://superbhost.net/">http://superbhost.net/</a></p> <p>Obviously these are all resellers for someone. Does anyone know who?</p> Mon, 26 Jul 1999 19:16:00 +0000 Malu comment 1018089 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
