For those who are interested, I've got a draft of some guidelines that can be used to create a group like nsp-sec-nz.

The only list I would be interested in is one which subscribes to the nsp-sec policy. No lurking. You have to be the person who is able to make the changes. Change jobs and you unsub. And some others. It's the only way. An "anyone can join" list will degrade into.... well my opinions here should remain to myself =) I would suggest that people look at joining nsp-sec rather than re-inventing the wheel. Or at the very least getting Rob to host an nsp-sec-nz list with the same policy around it. If you are a large provider, then there is probably already content on nsp-sec that you should know about.

Fwd: King Kong streaming tomorrow
by Paul Adshead 14 Dec '05

14 Dec '05

It may be good for someone in Telecom to let their front line staff know about (de-)peering at some point. After spending 15 minutes on the phone, it was quite amusing when they came back from putting me on hold: "I have talked to our tech guys and no-one in Xtra can get to the page either. They think it is a problem with the routing of data for the site at the far end. You could try power-cycling your router though"... Then when I asked for confirmation by email: "We suspect that there has been some stringent ip filtering and this is what could be causing the problem. We can not confirm this the best source of action would be to contact the host of the website for further information." Obviously either highly qualified in providing BS responses or just stupid. It's still annoying that I can't get to see it though... Paul -----Original Message----- From: Mike [mailto:mike(a)nzbox.com] Sent: Wednesday, 14 December 2005 17:20 To: NZNOG Subject: Re: [nznog] King Kong streaming tomorrow Hi Rich and Si Can I suggest you mention which streams will be available internationally in your announcements. Cant see either of these from Seattle ;-) good message for TCL and TNZ though.... Kia ora! You've reached the Citylink anycast node located in San Francisco, California. If you are in NZ, you should ring your ISP and ask them why your traffic is coming to the USA, rather than staying in New Zealand. Useful phone numbers are at TelstraClear (try the wholesale number if you get no joy from residential/business) and the best number for Telecom would appear to be 0800 CALL XTRA [22 55 98]. If you're feeling particularly cussed, ask them what's changed in the two years between the RoTK (when you could reach these streams nationally) and now. International users, we're sorry, sadly, our non-existent budget means that we can't make the Courtenay Place webcam available internationally. Such is life.

Hi all A belated notice that the red carpet TV coverage and Courtenay Place webcam will be streaming tomorrow as part of the King Kong premiere.

The webcam is running now, informal MMS streams will start about midday, TV coverage about 3pm. We're not expecting the same sorts of loads as RoTK, but who can tell. Cheers Si

Hi folks, Are there many among us who are members of AusCERT? Any in the practice of reporting incidents on NZ based hosts to AusCERT? Do AusCERT care to hear about incidents from non-members? Cheers, Jon
