Re: [Connectivity] www.usbank.com not reachable from my Comcast

said by tshirt:

Working fine here, BUT I have had problems with that site before.
Also try direct to the secure site (HTTPS) as sometimes the http redirector (your link) fails.
BTW pingplotter resolves 170.135.216.181 as bnkuse.com which links to some suspious results when googled.

I tried (and posted) both the http and the https links. Also, suspicious or not, 170.135.216.181 is the IP address in the A record for www.usbank.com no matter whose DNS server I try.

Doing a DNS lookup for the IP address 170.135.216.181 shows a large number of PTR records pointing to what appear to be US Bank owned or affiliated sites. That many PTR records is unusual, but not necessarily suspicious.

Working fine here, BUT I have had problems with that site before.
Also try direct to the secure site (HTTPS) as sometimes the http redirector (your link) fails.
BTW pingplotter resolves 170.135.216.181 as bnkuse.com which links to some suspious results when googled.

I tried (and posted) both the http and the https links. Also, suspicious or not, 170.135.216.181 is the IP address in the A record for www.usbank.com no matter whose DNS server I try.

Doing a DNS lookup for the IP address 170.135.216.181 shows a large number of PTR records pointing to what appear to be US Bank owned or affiliated sites. That many PTR records is unusual, but not necessarily suspicious.

Yep, if I do the whois query from my Linux server, I get the FirstBank (a US Bank predecessor) results too.

I only recently installed the Mark Russinovich whois utility on my Windows boxes. So much for trusting Microsoft's port of a *nix utility. I guess I need to go back to using the GeekTools application instead.

reply to JohnInSJ
They still have domain names under the Firstar Brand?

US Bank bought Firstar in the late '90s or early 2000's. I know this because Firstar became US Bank when I still lived in Iowa and I moved to Massachusetts in 2002.

Banks were being bought out like crazy back then. Commercial Federal Bought out Perpetual Savings Bank and they are now Bank of the West. Bank of America bought out Fleet. My current bank, Berkshire Bank was Woronoco Savings Bank before being bought out by Berkshire Bank.

I bet many of these banks still have servers using the domain names of their former names.

When I had AT&T for cell phone, they had many of their apps under the domains of mycingular even though their name changed to AT&T.

It would appear that US Bank has indeed preserved many (if not all) of their predecessors' domain names.

I remember the buyout because I lost a third party maintenance contract after the US Bank purchase of Firstar. I used to maintain routers and other communication devices for Star Bank and Firstar in this area for a VAR who supplied the equipment.
