OT Slingshot activations/admin request
by Barry Murphy 23 Oct '06

23 Oct '06

Hi There, First off sorry for the offtopic post, though I'm drinking beer and offering beer to someone that can help me from Slingshot activations / admin. For some odd reason my Italk number fell off the face of slingshot (perhaps it's in fiji or been sold without knowing) since Saturday afternoon. No one till now has been able to help and it's causing issues for people trying to contact me and for me in general. Please reply offlist if you can assist, beer offerings. Cheers Barry -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

national bank phish

heads up on a recent PHISHing attack I guess others may have users complaining about the PHISH just arriving representing itself as the National Bank while the site collecting is http://www.ffmd.org/bilder/www.nbnz.co.nz/login.html We've found a live chat with the web provider for ffmd.org and mailed abuse@@b-one.net who own the IP space. Any other strategies to close an internationally hosted one like this? -Robert

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that some object(s) in NZRR database which you either maintain or are listed as to-be-notified have been added, deleted or changed. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes. --- PREVIOUS OBJECT: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS23655 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Snap Internet Limited - AS23655 members: 132.181.0.0/16^16-29, 202.124.96.0/19^19-29, 210.5.48.0/21^21-29, 203.97.28.0/22^22-29, 202.27.186.0/23^23-29, 202.36.178.0/23^23-29, 202.36.218.0/23^23-29, 202.36.220.0/23^23-29, 202.37.100.0/23^23-29, 202.37.124.0/23^23-29, 202.49.120.0/23^23-29, 210.55.30.0/23^23-29, 210.55.206.0/23^23-29, 192.156.225.0/24^24-29, 202.49.115.0/24^24-29, 202.49.125.0/24^24-29, 202.50.117.0/24^24-29, 202.50.169.0/24^24-29, 203.96.112.0/24^24-29, 210.54.15.0/24^24-29, 210.55.4.0/24^24-29, 210.55.7.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc(a)snap.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060724 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS23655 descr: advertised to AS9439 by Snap Internet Limited - AS23655 members: 132.181.0.0/16^16-29, 202.124.96.0/19^19-29, 203.86.192.0/20^20-29, 210.5.48.0/21^21-29, 202.49.92.0/22^22-29, 202.50.104.0/22^22-29, 202.50.124.0/22^22-29, 202.27.186.0/23^23-29, 202.36.178.0/23^23-29, 202.36.218.0/23^23-29, 202.36.220.0/23^23-29, 202.37.100.0/23^23-29, 202.37.124.0/23^23-29, 202.49.90.0/23^23-29, 202.49.120.0/23^23-29, 210.55.30.0/23^23-29, 210.55.206.0/23^23-29, 192.156.225.0/24^24-29, 202.36.170.0/24^24-29, 202.49.115.0/24^24-29, 202.49.125.0/24^24-29, 202.49.187.0/24^24-29, 202.50.117.0/24^24-29, 202.50.169.0/24^24-29, 203.96.112.0/24^24-29, 210.54.15.0/24^24-29, 210.55.4.0/24^24-29, 210.55.7.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: noc(a)snap.net.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20061019 source: NZRR

by leo vegoda 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

[Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC received the IPv6 address range 2a00::/12 from the IANA in October 2006. This allocation expands two previous allocations. We will begin allocating from this new space in the near future. The minimum allocation size for this /12 has been set at /32. You may wish to adjust any filters you have in place accordingly. More information on the IP space administered by the RIPE NCC can be found on our web site at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-ncc-managed-address-space.html Regards, -- leo vegoda Registration Services Manager RIPE NCC

17 Oct '06

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that some object(s) in NZRR database which you either maintain or are listed as to-be-notified have been added, deleted or changed. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes. --- PREVIOUS OBJECT: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24324 descr: advertised to AS9560 by BCL - AS24324 members: 124.157.64.0/19^19-29, 202.49.128.0/21^21-29, 218.185.24.0/21^21-29, 202.27.83.0/24^24-29, 202.36.75.0/24^24-29, 202.36.154.0/24^24-29, 202.37.168.0/24^24-29, 202.49.183.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: leon.chang(a)bclnz.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060911 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9560:RS-ROUTES:AS24324 descr: advertised to AS9560 by - AS24324 members: 124.157.64.0/19^19-29, 202.49.128.0/21^21-29, 218.185.224.0/21^21-29, 202.27.83.0/24^24-29, 202.36.75.0/24^24-29, 202.36.154.0/24^24-29, 202.37.168.0/24^24-29, 202.49.183.0/24^24-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: smc(a)bclnz.com mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20061018 source: NZRR
