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?

Anyone interested in donating space / connectivity / kit for a proper NZ Debian mirror?
by Michael Fincham 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

Hi everyone, Citylink's official Debian mirror (ftp.nz.debian.org) is apparently again broken (not even listening on port 80 from where I'm sitting). Would anyone be seriously interested in donating rack space, national transit, or hardware to the cause of another official Debian mirror for NZ? Having reliable and cheap access to free software projects like Debian is critically important, and having a second official mirror seems like a no-brainer to me. I am very happy to donate my time to admin and monitor any equipment provided for this, and to liase with the Debian project as required. Perhaps Citylink could give us some insight in to the traffic levels their existing mirrors see? -- Michael Fincham

Hi All, With NZIX being a Not-for-profit that is overseen by a committee of its members, there a number of idea's bouncing around the of things that we could/should do with NZIX and the membership funds coming in. The NZIX committee is really interested in feedback on how we are going and where we should be heading to ensure that we steer the exchanges in the direction that best serves our members and the New Zealand Internet. NZIX has made a short survey to attempt to get some feedback on what we should be focusing on which can be found here https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NZIX2017. Cheers Chris

Internet at the conference
by Nathan Ward 22 Jan '17

22 Jan '17

Hi, I’m in Tauranga for the week for work, and am staying at Trinity where the conference is being held. I’m attending on Thurs/Fri (now that I’ve registered having prev. forgotten haha). The wifi here, at least in the rooms, is abysmal - I’ve stayed here a few times before, and it’s always the same - and is the same now. Anywhere from 10-25% loss, and 100-500ms std-dev when ARPing the gateway at various times. I note that there’s an NZNOG SSID - is this using the same wifi equipment? MACs seem similar, but reception is poor, so maybe it’s just in the conference area? If you have an ethernet adapter, you can plug in to the lower of the two RJ45 holes in your room, get 100mbit link, auth with the captive portal, and get 2% loss instead, much better RTT though. Seems I can get around 8mbit/s out of it. Of course, if this is how it is without a bunch of nerds, it’s not going to get any better at the tail end of the week ! Long story short - unless the conf. organisers are sorting something else out, bring some 4G if you need to be online reliably - 4G on VFNZ seems to be OK here and has been a life saver for me when staying here in the past. Cheers, -- Nathan Ward

Does anyone know what the story is with caching Amazon Prime traffic? Do they have an ISP programme for rolling out caches like the Netflix Open Connect Appliances?
