It looks like its just certain DNS servers that are having problems with the *.ethereal.com DNS names.

Specifically when I use my ISP's DNS servers (earthlink)
all of the *.ethereal.com names get redirected to:

Name:    resalehost.networksolutions.com
Address:  205.178.189.128
Aliases:  www.ethereal.com

But when using my employer's DNS server I get the following answer which get's me into ethereal's web site.

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    www.ethereal.com
Address:  65.208.228.223

This begs the question: Which DNS server is answering correctly?
The address:

65.208.228.223

is the correct one.

The DNS record available at whois.networksolutions.com was created 1994 and expires 2012, so this is certainly a DNS server problem at earthlink and probably elsewhere.
