I get unable to connect to host or I get non-existant host/domain
on lookups, and get directed to www.openlinux.org.com on the above.

Looks like whoever at Caldera/SCO that manages the nameservers finally saw
this and reconfigured the DNS (removed the zone). It's your browser that
is querying the server at www.openlinux.org.com when the lookup of
www.openlinux.org fails.

However, it's another sign of incompetance to leave www.openlinux.org
pointing to a webserver not controlled by Caldera/SCO.

IMO: people use the word "incompetance" too often, when "oversight"
would a better choice.

So exactly who are you suggesting is responsible for the lack of oversight?

While we are on the subject of webservers -- what about www.sco.com being hosted on Linux? Whatever happened to eating your own dogfood? We have SCO's marketing hawking the "SCAMP" stack while SCO itself uses LAMP (well, I don't know if the website is using the "AMP" part, but Netcraft shows Linux being used).
