	The UNCANET nad stated that he would handle *.AB.CA.  If he has not
	registered himself stating this, then that might explain why none of
	the other registrations went through, as we all sent our registrations
	to him.

	The problem still is that .MtRoyal.AB.CA 's only link to netnorth
	is through UNCANET (or maybe UNCAEDU).  I have sent another registraion
	through to the registry and I have stated that UNCANET is the forwarder.
	I hope this is ok.

	thanks for all your help.  We'll see how the second registration
	goes.
