A list of organisations that are connected to the Internet in New Zealand.An internet connected organisation here could mean anything from a company with thousands of machines permanently connected to the internet through to someone with a single machine with a dialup slip or PPP connection, or that they don't have direct internet connectivity but can receive mail to an internet style domain name, or they have a distinct World Wide Web presence hosted on some providers machine.The lists are automatically generated monthly by walking the New Zealand portion of the DNS namespace (ie. that part that ends .nz). As such they do not include organisations that do not appear within this portion of the DNS, such as those that are listed under other domains (eg. .com) or those that have accounts with ISP's and just appear under that ISP's name. ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/new-zealand-faq
