Backlog of email to Xtra
by Glen Eustace 19 Apr '07

19 Apr '07

We currently have a growing queue of email to xtra.co.nz on all of our mail servers. According to Xtra's website, there are no issues. Is this just our problem or is this a little more of a generic problem ? We are just getting lost of "421 Message rejected (in reply to end of DATA command)" errors. Glen.

TCL -> Callplus/Slingshot issues
by Steve Biddle 18 Apr '07

18 Apr '07

All day yesterday I was unable to see any of the Callplus/Slingshot network from my TCL cable connection (obviously due to the Telecom problems). This issue was resolved last night but is now occuring again. I've given up trying to ring the TCL helpdesk (wait times listed as 90 mins despite no known network issues) so am at least hoping somebody reading this may be able to look into the issue if they're not already. All other internet sites from TCL are working fine so it appears to be some sort of routing issue somewhere..

Email to SMS gateway
by Clark Mills 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

Hi all. I read this on one of our internal mailing lists, thought it might be of interest / use. We use something like this for server monitoring but it's not so good if your email server / network is down, aside from the potential lagginess [SP?] that sometimes occurs with the SMS service. Still, it may have some value to you. Of course if any information below is wrong, please let me know. Cheers... Clark ================================================================================= [forwarded & edited] If you are on Vodafone, you can 'register' you phone by texting the letter R to the number 901. You should then get back a 'you are registered etc' welcome message. Once your phone is registered anyone/thing can send you a txt by using an email address such as: 6421123456(a)sms.vodafone.net.nz Where your mobile number is presumed to be 021-123456. As far as I know, there is no charge for this service.

We use a combination of SMS messages sent via a Wavecom GSM Modem for server and network link and services monitoring, and our main alarm system connects via xml to a "datashed" gateway which gives us handset availability notification, automatic escalation and fallback to a Telecom CDMA modem for backup. In addition we send a test message once an hour to a remote site, if the message isn't heard, it triggers a timer that eventually triggers a voice dialer. Telecom paging was our previous provider, however as they keep continuing to threaten to phase this out, we moved over to SMS some time ago.

It has the nice side effect of ensuring that even if the message does get delivered, whoever is on call isn't ignoring it. I looked at this a while ago, and used an external mail-to-SMS provider (Bulletin Wireless) which worked fine. Obviously having an out-of-band path to them is also handy. As someone else mentioned, Telecom's analog paging service is also reliable and easy to automate. Pagers tend to work when out of cell coverage or in deep dark basements. _______________________________________________ NZNOG mailing list NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog ##################################################################################### This e-mail message and any attached files may contain confidential information, and may be subject to legal professional privilege.
