I think I may be able to shed some light on this one. There are a couple possibilities. One is that the PC's were not used since mid-May, and the registrations were deleted in the annual cleanup (soon to be an automated, regular cleanup of unused registrations). If it wasn't that, then send me e-mail with sample Ethernet addresses, and I'll see what I make of it.
