RE: Paradise spam policy
by Shane Cole 04 Feb '01

04 Feb '01

Hi Michael In over 3 years of running Paradise we have had one complaint about the inability to 'opt out' of this policy. We don't block mail, we block insecure mail servers (those that are known to allow spam to be sent through them) from connecting to our mail servers (and consequently deliver any email to our customers). We don't try to determine whether the message that was attempting to be delivered by such a server was in fact spam or not, consequently, it is entirely possible that someone trying to send a message to one of our customers that one would consider to be 'other emails' would not get through, it would however, be bounced and the sender would normally learn the reason their message could not be delivered to our customer. It would come back with one of the following: 550 Rejected - see http://www.mail-abuse.org/rbl/ 550 Open spam relay - see http://www.mail-abuse.org/rss 550 Dialup - see http://www.mail-abuse.org/dul/ I would also recommend having a look at http://mail-abuse.org/rbl/rationale.html if you have not read it before, particularly the Rights to Passage section. Sorry I am not free to discuss this with you on the telephone. A copy of this message has been sent to other network and ISP operators as well as Quentin Bright, the media relations contact for TelstraSaturn.

Public Consultation: SRS Implementation
by Sue Leader 01 Feb '01

01 Feb '01

Greetings all - Forwarded on behalf of the Chair: ================== Implementation of a competitive shared registry system for .nz: The SRS IOC is pleased to release its Green Paper on implementation of a competitive shared registrar system for .nz. This Green Paper sets the context in which the issue arises, discusses the steps taken by ISOCNZ to date, and lists the various options for action and their consequences. After a period of time to permit further comment, which is now solicited, the IOC will prepare a White Paper which will make selections from the various options, and chart the implementation course, including operational responsibilities, a timetable, and a budget. Because of the time taken to date, and the extensive consultation which has occurred, the consultation period for this Green Paper will therefore close on Friday, 16 February 2001. Between that time and 4 March 2001, the IOC will draft the White Paper. It will, in this period, take such further advice, and conduct such further consultations as it believes appropriate. On Monday, 5 March 2001 the White Paper will be presented to Council at a special meeting convened for the purpose of reviewing the White Paper. By Monday, 19 March Council will have voted on the implementation of the White Paper. By then, a Project Implementation Manager should have been appointed, and implementation should commence." Kind regards, Peter Dengate Thrush Chair, ISOCNZ ============== To read the Green Paper please go to: http://www.isocnz.org.nz/consult/ A new mailing list has been set up for this consultation.

Mail problem
by Gordon Findlay 31 Jan '01

31 Jan '01

Folks: I wonder if anyone can help. Last night I upgraded our name server (ns.cce.ac.nz) to the latest BIND. SInce then we've had intermittant problems receiving email. Now I've reverted to the previous version: still got problems. The setup is: name server ns.cce.ac.nz 202.36.178.69 mail server mailbox.cce.ac.nz 202.36.178.67 we connect through xtra, but have our own domain and mail servers. traceroute is stopped at our firewall. Every name server that I check has the correct records (well, I think they are correct) except that for a few hours dns1.clear.net.nz had the wrong MX record. Taking xtra as an example: only one out of many test messages has reached us. One message from paradise.net.nz got here - in three hours. Others have not. I'd have thought there might be a routing problem - but I can telent to the boxes from outside this site. Folk from clear, telecom and domainz have all looked at the problem, and been a great help, but we seem to be no nearer a solution. One suggested trying nznog Can anyone suggest where I might start looking now? It's been 24 hours and I'm puzzled. Thanks for any suggestions.

RE: Wireless APE.

It is not the equipment that determines the output, but the 2.4Ghz spectrum regulations being 4 watts. It will cost you more for a WaveLan setup as Lucent's outdoor solution (COR and ROR)does not conform to 802.11. They have deployed there own proprietary polling system and they will not work with any other vendor. So if you want to use a Linux box at home to save cost you should go with Cisco, also the drivers for the Cisco card come prepackaged in the latest Linux distributions.

APE peering party....
by Matthew Grant 30 Jan '01

30 Jan '01

Hi HTere! I am currently the Network Administrator for Plain Communications (http://www.plain.co.nz/) in Christchurch. We have been an ISP from almost the start of public Internet service in the South Island, and host approx 200 WWW sites which include major corporate entities. We formed the first peering at APE with Clear Net when it started over a year ago. Next Friday we should have our router in the skytower upgraded to Zebra software (http://www.zebra.org/) from gated which means that we will be able to peer with much greater facility at APE. Could the parties interested in forming peering arrangements with us please get back to me, or my protege Mr Ben Aitchison <ben(a)plain.co.nz> who will be taking over next week. I will still be available from time to time when needed. Thank you for your cooperation.

Spammer termination: Central Pacific Imports Ltd. (car.co.nz) (fwd)
by Alan Brown 25 Jan '01

25 Jan '01

This actually happened a couple of weeks ago, but usenet.net.nz has been down so I've been unable to post the notice. Central Pacific Imports Ltd, also known as Andre Blenkiron motors. We have terminated service to cpiltd(a)manawatu.gen.nz - this is/was the listed domain contact for cars.co.nz and a group of other domains registered through Ihug and elsewhere. The car.co.nz (*) domain has been spamming via email and usenet for some time, mainly from Xtra dialups. As soon as we became aware of it(**) and the records linking it to our domain(***), we suspended the account and required that they sign a written agreement to cease posting unsolicited commercial email and Usenet posting from any ISP in order to regain their account on ours. Central Pacific Imports have refused to do so - this is a fairly good indication that they know they're spamming and have every indication of continuing to do so. CPI currently have a Paradise.net.nz connection, judging from attempts to access the disabled account. (*) No relation to cars.co.nz (**) Spam arriving in our traps on November 27th originating from Xtra, confirmed by Dejanews searches. (***) Whois lookups while preparing LARTS showed cpiltd(a)manawatu.gen.nz as the domain contact for this and several related domains.

That is true, They do conform to 802.11 which is the 2.4Ghz standard for indoors. It is good up to about 2500 feet away from the transmission site. The further out you go the slower the connection will run. Saying that I have seen 15kms out of this stuff, but you may only get about 500k. It depends on the quality of the install and the antenna you use. If you wanted to do it with Lucent buy a Lucent AP not ROR or COR . I have some for sale second hand. Also have some old bronze cards(10 and 2Mb) if anyone wants them.

The sky tower is about the worst place in Auckland to do wireless from. The amount of noise coming off the sky tower is very high. You will only be able to cover a small area with each Cisco bridge due to interference around the CBD. The Cisco gear works in the 2.4Ghz Unlicensed band. The max power output is 4 watts at the antenna. The best thing on your home end would be a Linux box with a PCI cradle and Cisoc PCI card.

James, Yes to (a), (b) (windows 13,14,15,16,17,18) - unless you are thinking of multiple antennae! and (c). Remembering of course that most of the cost is for international transit rather than the gear. However I'm sure that between us that wouldn't be a problem :)) I have already tested a Lucent Orinocco ROR1000 to my home (Bastion point) from the Sky Tower, Lvl 48 with great success.

Same response as Juha's. I've always had an idea of having a wireless-internet or wireless LAN co-op after I read a slashdot story about it. The only prob I can see with this is the yearly rental of the space at the sky tower for the comms gear. Aparently it's a few thousand a year.

Just out of interest, how many people on this list; a) live in Auckland. b) have line of sight to the sky tower. c) would be willing to help chip in for a Cisco Aironet 340 wireless RIG, or similar to their home. It's just this crazy idea I had, and I figure the more people the cheaper it is. Cheers.

I have investigated this alot recently. The answer is that Walker Wireless have the first right to use of the Sky Tower as a beaming point. THis is not exclusive though. Providing that your equipment does not interfere with Walkers Wirelesses you can operate it from the Sky Tower. ~benm ------------------------------------------------ Ben Martel CLEAR Net --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
