NZNOG-People, I have just finished migrating all of the mailing lists held at The University of Waikato from one server to another. I don't have any reason to believe that anything's gone wrong, but please bear with me for today if it turns out that something has. - Donald Neal -- Donald Neal | Q: How many Aucklanders does it take to change Systems Programmer/Analyst | a light bulb?

domestic congestion?
by Peter Mott 29 Jul '99

29 Jul '99

We are experiencing an unusally high number of reports from customers connecting to CLEAR and XTRA having performance problems FTP'ing to our web servers. Worst times seem to be late afternoon and late at night. Given that our 2Mbps link to Netgate is idling along, one expects there are some issues between afore mention providers and Netgate. It was not uncommon to get the occasional report from an IHUG customer, but it seems CLEAR and XTRA have joined in :-) I dont have any traces as yet, just customer service stats recording large jump in calls on this topic. Anybody have any knowledge / facts that may explain above?

ape.net.nz

Good lord, what a lot of nameservers :) I have chosen a selection from the replies I got -- I thought twenty nameservers for a single zone was probably over the top, and the selection below gives good diversity between different NZ networks. These were pretty much the first replies I got back. ns1.citylink.co.nz (203.97.231.226) [SOA] ns1.netlink.co.nz (202.20.93.10) ns1.clear.net.nz (203.97.33.14) ns1.ihug.net.nz (203.29.160.4) The zone should be ready for transfer from 203.97.231.226 right now. Thanks for all the other people who offered nameservice for the zone. I'll certainly keep you in mind next time I want something for free :) Joe --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Volunteers for nameservice, please: ape.net.nz
by Joe Abley 28 Jul '99

28 Jul '99

[to nznog, bcc'd to ape-discuss, sorry for duplicates] I am about to ask ISOCNZ to arrange the ape.net.nz domain for the benefit of the community, for use relating to the Auckland Peering Exchange. We need volunteers for: + primary nameservice; someone needs to be the main point of contact for adding records to the zone + secondary nameservice; it would be nice to have a few secondary nameservers around the place. If you'd like to be involved, please contact me directly -- I'd like to get a list of nameservers organised quickly so I can approach ISOCNZ with instructions for getting the zone live.

As to the current state of New Zealand's IP backbone I tell people there isn't one, though a number of corporates, including ISP's, operate their own medium- and long-distance links using point-to-point services provided by telcos. If anyone has an improvement on that answer, I'd be keen to hear about it. - Donald Neal ----- Forwarded message from Wdy ----- ~From woody(a)paradise.net.nz Tue Jul 27 08:19 NZS 1999 ~Message-ID: <000c01bed7a3$f224ed60$4a9460cb(a)woody> ~From: "Wdy" <woody(a)paradise.net.nz> ~To: <r.street(a)auckland.ac.nz> ~Subject: hi ~Date: Tue, 27 Jul 1999 08:17:54 +1200 [Charset iso-8859-1 unsupported, filtering to ASCII...] As an student I'm doing an assignment on the backbone structure available to New Zealand however I'm finding it hard to find any information the topic I have the data on the Gateway into NZ but there are surely more backbone structures than that network please have you any information on this topic any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you Alistair Wood --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Apparently of operational interest to at least one ISP in Auckland. http://www.patho.gen.nz/~jabley/MVC-103F.JPG Fifteen strikes this morning, apparently. We saw two of them clearly on the way to work this morning, and can confirm that they were Really Cool :) Joe --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
