Michuki can correct us if we are wrong...but my understanding is that ALL .KE (i.e. including ccc.go.KE) would sit in the kenyan domain or name space... So I am thinking Yawes Traceroute interpratation is wrong. Probably, he would have said that from where he is sitting (assuming his desktop in Kenya) his traffic had to go out of the country and then back in, before it landed on the CCK website. Which is very possible depending on how his ISP has routed his traffic _ particularly if the ISP is not connected through our KIXP (Kenya Internet exchange point). So I am willing to bet my pension that ccc.go.ke is on kenyan soil. walu. --- Alex Gakuru <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi All,
Here is a trick question, where is the Communications Commission of Kenya's (CCK) web site is hosted?
Wrong it is not at Telkom or at their headquarters, it seats in a foreign land, from the routing seems like the UK. Evidence provided below.
C:\>tracert www.cck.go.ke
Tracing route to meru1.africaonline.co.ke [216.251.32.98] over a maximum of 30 hops:

So when the regulator has no faith in the infrastructure he is meant to regulate and monitor how are the mortals like us supposed to have faith in the infrastructure.
