Notification of NZRR Database changes

28 Feb '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: aut-num: AS24385 as-name: NZRR-AS24385 descr: 3CIX admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS64646 accept AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons import: from AS24385:AS-PRIVATE accept AS24385:RS-ROUTES:PeerAS import: from AS24385:AS-PUBLIC accept AS24385:RS-ROUTES:PeerAS export: to AS64646 announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS24385:AS-PRIVATE announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES OR AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS24385:AS-PUBLIC announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES OR AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: asjl(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060130 source: NZRR REPLACED BY: aut-num: AS24385 as-name: NZRR-AS24385 descr: 3CIX admin-c: RPA1-NZRR tech-c: RPA1-NZRR import: from AS64646 accept AS64646 OR AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons import: from AS24385:AS-PRIVATE accept AS24385:RS-ROUTES:PeerAS import: from AS24385:AS-PUBLIC accept AS24385:RS-ROUTES:PeerAS export: to AS64646 announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS24385:AS-PRIVATE announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES OR AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons export: to AS24385:AS-PUBLIC announce AS24385:RS-ROUTES OR AS9439:RS-ROUTES AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} AND NOT fltr-bogons notify: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net notify: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz notify: asjl(a)citylink.co.nz mnt-by: MAINT-NZRR-NZ changed: rpsl-admin(a)nzix.net 20060301 source: NZRR

The Origins of "2006 NZ Census - Are you a New Zealander"
by Craig Whitmore 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

A little (lot) OT but.... Does anyone know the origins of this email. It seems its going around like wildfire at the moment. Yes I could ask the person who sent it to me who sent it to them and so on and so on.. its getting a little anoying now.. I have 10 copies already from just this morning. I guess its like the last Census where the email about being a Jedi was sent around. Subject: 2006 NZ Census - Are you a New Zealander? Did you know that New Zealand is pretty much the only place in the world that you can not actually be a New Zealander? Whenever you fill out a form or survey in New Zealand you can tick the box to say you are Maori, Tongan, Samoan, Australian, European (or NZ born of European Decent), Asian, etc but there is no box provided to say "Yes, I am a New Zealander and I am proud to be one" In Australia, you can be an Australian... In fact in Australia you can be a New Zealander. etc.. etc Thanks Craig

Fwd: FW: SORBs blacklisting Paradise MTAs
by Paul Adshead 22 Feb '06

22 Feb '06

Having previously been listed on the SORBS list, I can say from personal experience that trying to get any information from them is like trying to draw blood from a stone. You just give up - there is quite literally nothing you can do. The legal stuff on their site says something like "you are not supposed to block access based on information on this site", yet that is exactly why their site has been created. That's their legal 'get out' to avoid all liability. Their attitude stinks. They are quite happy to cripple your business for days/weeks at a time and their response time after an issue has been resolved is pathetic. Paul -----Original Message----- From: neil gardner [mailto:neil.gardner(a)alliedtelesyn.co.nz] Sent: Wednesday, 1 February 2006 14:12 To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: [nznog] SORBs blacklisting Paradise MTAs Hi gents (and gentesses) I reported to Paradise that Sorbs was blacklisting a particular Paradise MTA last night (details below) and their response was that sorbs refuse to whitelist them so there's nothing they can do about it... The further state that "SORBS automatically delist the servers after a 48 hour time period, and mail passing through the once affected mail server should flow as per normal." yet the information pasted below seems to indicate that the particular IP I reported has been on the list since Dec 11th 2005. They're spinning me a line right? The Sorbs record hasn't been updated since Dec 11th! *--- Info from sorbs as of 5 minutes ago *--- Address: 203.96.152.180 Record Created: Sun Dec 11 13:53:04 2005 GMT Record Updated: Sun Dec 11 13:53:04 2005 GMT Additional Information: Received: from linda-1.paradise.net.nz (bm-1a.paradise.net.nz [203.96.152.180]) by vampire.isux.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 58986B90C; Sun, 11 Dec 2005 13:52:40 +0000 (UTC) Currently active and flagged to be published in DNS *--- end info from sorbs *--- Why would Paradise deliberately avoid resolving this issue when pointed out to them? If anyone from Paradise / Telstraclear would like to jump in and explain why your helpdesker effectively refused to do anything about the situation then I'm all ears. Yes, I did report to Paradise through the appropriate mechanism, then I replied to their automated response, then this morning I phoned to report it and had my number taken (no-one has phoned back) and a few minutes ago I received the reply to the original message saying they can't do anything.
