I gather that my message was taken wrong way, and seen as an attack on the integrity of TSNZ's network operations[1]. The problem wasn't in Telstra's network, I read the mtr output wrongly, and many apologies for that. Now back to the regular programming. -- Regards, Juha Removing sig! For great justice!

On the 9th December there will be planned maintenance work carried out on the drs replicated site in Auckland. This will require a system outage of approximately two hours, between 06:00hrs and 08:00hrs, to resynchronise the databases. During this time email templates will continue to be received but will not be processed until after the work is finished. The whois will be available but the web site will not.

Any phone wiring gurus on the list?
by Juha Saarinen 14 Nov '01

14 Nov '01

Scratching my head here... how does Telecom wire the phone cables? I've got a Rentel 410, with an RJ-11C at the phone end, and a BT jack at the other end. I'd like to plug that into the modem pass-through phone port, and the modem into the wall jack, to connect to the PSTN </obNetworkContent>. The modem pass-through port is RJ-11C. If I look at modem-to-wall cables, known to work, they use the red/green pair only. Although the RJ-11C connector has six pins on those, as opposed to the four-pin variety used for the Rentel phone, physically, the connectors for the red/green pair are in the same place. However, plugging the modem cable into the phone produces no dialtone. Does Telecom use more than the red/green pair? -- Regards, Juha Removing sig!

MFAT mails out virus

Hi all. The Subject is kinda true. I'm on the MFAT mailing list which tells me which countries hate Kiwis at any point in time. And this morning it mailed out a strange message which had a subject of "The Auster story goes back into the 1930s." And came from an xtra email address. I just wrote it off as spam. It turns out though that the email contained a virus. Now it's not MFAT's fault (although I don't know what the list was doing unmoderated. I might look at sending out an Advisory for Kiwi's living in Sydney =) (THIS IS A JOKE!) But it does bring up a good point. Do list managers have a duty of care when it comes to scanning for viruses? My mail box is now filling up with messages from people virus scanners who are auto responding to the MFAT mailing list. Thoughts, Comments, Calls for me to shut the **** up?

Locating (netwise) root and ccTLD name-servers by means other than a hint file
by Chris Wedgwood 11 Nov '01

11 Nov '01

Anyone out there know if there are significant numbers of people using some means other that a bind 'hint' file[1] to locate TLD and ccTLD name-servers? I was under the impression that if the name-servers for a ccTLD were changed for some reason and this change accurately reflected in the root name-serves, pretty much the entire world would notice such a change within a little more than the objects TTL. However, I discovered a couple of hours ago that some of these 'alternative TLD' proponent sites out there are actually suggestion people not use a static hint file but rather AXFR "." from a server which they have set up... ignoring the obvious security implications here, there is no guarantee this information will be kept synchronized with the rest of the world and indeed in some instances appears to be inaccurate. Is anyone using such schemes or perhaps even hint files which specify ccTLDs explicitly? --cw (preparing to kill of legacy ccTLD name-servers) [1] a la "dig . axfr @a.root-servers.net > named.hint" sort of thing - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Re: Update
by Matt Brown 08 Nov '01

Michael, I have CC this to NZNOG since wireless is the topic of the week. These are my guidelines . Outdoor networks are not toys. To build a proper outdoor network you need to do the following things. 1) Site Survey - Using diagnostic card or Spec Analyzer to determine the channels noise levels at 20 Degree increments. Build a pie graph that shows all 360 Degrees and elevation. From this you will know the right channel to use in the best direction. Never assume that since the link only goes 500m that you need not to worry. I have a POP that goes 20km that has the capacity to kill most radios on the same channel within 10KM radius. ( Transmit gain is a deadly weapon ). I condone the use of outdoor networks that are not site surveyed. 2) Network ID - Identify all the surrounding networks with the correct software ( Unnamed for others security ). Make sure you know the people that run these networks. You never know when you might need to ask them to change channels. Shooting there POP down does NOT give you a foot in the door. 3) Antenna Choice - 500m is not far, But using two 100 Degree leaky antennas with bad Rad patterns will introduce you to a lot of interference. Stick to a good Grid of 15 - 19dbi . Panels are OK if the patterns are good. Keep you beam tight and loose the gain in the cables. Run RG-50 to the antenna ( 6-8M MAX! ) and compensate with the bigger tighter antennas. DON'T USE OMNIS! ( but you all know that right :) ) 4) Equipment Choice. - Love Thy Neighbors. Use DSSS 11mb equipment with European Firmware. Stick to Channels 1-6-11 . These are the main points to ANY out door network. Scan / Map / Plan / Deploy Good Luck with the network. !!!

To reiterate, I am after wireless access point/s for use with external roof top aerials. I am after more than one unit. I need a unit that can do point > multipoint (Lucent AP500/1000 or similar) and also interested in point to point style units for another project. In any case a unit has to be able to handle a external aerial and be 802.11b compat. When contacting me, please specify whether cards are included or not. (I don't mind). My email address is: michael(a)comsolve.net.nz Please keep things short and simple as I know what I am after and include contact details.

Emergency Outage

Please note that the DRS will be taken down for approximately an hour after zone push this evening. The email template will continue to work, but database additions and replies to template requests will be delayed. The web site will not be available for editing or adding records during this period. All further information will be passed on as soon as it comes available. I apologise for the late notice of the outage, and the inconvenience, but the outage is required to fix an issue that occurred this afternoon which is leaving the database in a vulnerable position.
