Port 25
by Simon 19 Apr '06

19 Apr '06

Just a quick email to the list to find out what other service providers are doing regarding XTRA blocking port 25 when your company does not provide internet connections, so many of your customers are using xtra as a service provider but not for other services wuch as mail. Many of my customers are XTRA customers, but are also vodafone etc etc, so an external autheticated mail server is a huge bonus for them. Use secure port? Regards, Simon

Donald/Simon, please kill this thread. Things have gotten personal for some reason that I don't care to understand. Alastair Johnson wrote: > Are you familiar with the term "FUD"?

I will heed your wise words... Goodnight gentlemen. I'm leaving it there, I've no interest in these non operational issues. I have better things to do, I'll go back to being silent.

That would be me saying "You know they charge for it", I CFDed researching it - if I wanted to know I would. I don't. If you want to know, research it. The issue is Xtra are blocking port 25. That is bad and not good, all at the same time. I'll repeat, keep it on the list. -- Cheers, James Clark.

> disabling their customer's service. Actually, subscribers have the option to "opt-out" so if you know what you're doing and WANT to use another smtp server/use port 25 for some reason you still can. A reasonable compromise between, "disabling their customer's service" and being proactive about security in my personal opinion. Not that blocking port 25 is going to be a magic bullet against all viruses/worms etc, but a start anyway.

I've got good friends working at Telecom, they treat their employees well. That doesn't stop Telecom being part of the "evil empire". Oh, wait, Xtra is a seperate company. I forgot. If you want to punish me, which would just be sad, please just block me from posting to the list. -- Cheers, James Clark

Notification of NZRR Database changes
by NZRR Database Notifications 17 Apr '06

17 Apr '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: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS24181 descr: Route set advertised to AS9439 by TheLoop - AS24181 members: 202.49.20.0/22^22-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: geoffs(a)nayland.school.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20051027 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: route-set: AS9439:RS-ROUTES:AS24181 descr: advertised to AS9439 by The Loop - AS24181 members: 202.49.16.0/21^21-29 admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: swebb(a)connectorsystems.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060418 source: NZRR

Re: [nznog] Downloading Fedora 4

>> Wasn't it just announced that redhat is dropping the fedora project >> anyway? Not really surprising, but it happened a little quicker than >> I had thought it would. > > Nope, just the "Fedora Foundation", sorry I got too bored reading the > email announcement to pick up the details of what that meant, so I > can't really explain what that changes. I did note they said they > want to put more money and support into the project as it was vital > to their business model. Summary: * Gifting services ($1.5M/yr in bandwidth) to a non profit foundation formed to run Fedora would cost Red Hat too much in tax. * Keeping track of engineer time would be too costly, and most Fedora work is done by Red Hat engineers. * The requirements of a non-profit under US law is that a certain percentage of their income needs to be from community donations, which they are unlikely to meet. They are moving back to having a community advisory board. Not much really changes. WLUG maintain a list of mirrors of Linux in NZ that anyone can edit; http://www.wlug.org.nz/NewZealandLinuxMirrors. It's a bit out of date, but with all the people here who run a mirror updating their own little bit, can get back in shape in no time. Craig
