Black Box used to have a local website and produce a Catalog, not sure
if they still do in NZ. They carry a range of remote power units, have
a browse - I'm sure there is something suitable there:

I use a few of them and they are just as good as Lights Out cards from

Most vendors have some kind of module available as standard, or as an
option.
IBM: "Remote Supervisor Adapter"
HP: "Lights-Out"
Dell: "DRAC" (Dell Remote Access Controller)
Obviously, blade chassis, etc. have these built in..
There are also cards that go home made PCs, I believe.
APC and others also make remote power switches, which are a power
distribution board that let you switch ports on and off individually.
This
may solve part of your problem for cheaper than lightsout cards in all
your servers.
I believe the interface is some kind of network thing (ie. web, SNMP or
telnet), or maybe RS-232.

All New Zealanders who offered to be presenters at March's conference
should by now have received a response. Well, all except one whose
corporate email system is rejecting my emails.
Could anyone living in New Zealand who has offered to present and not
received a reply please contact me directly.

The interim was in fact a fairly short period of time. A young sales
chap arrived on day one and took over my office. I have had no
participation at a management or operational level since that …
[View More]time.
That was back in May.
There was a contract in place for my services, but that has since been
terminated.
I will however be keeping an eye on the industry from my motor yacht :-)

UberNetworks is a new WISP operating in Whangarei, our wireless network
has just entered its live trails with a small client base. Currently we
are operating in the 202.49.132.0/27 range and wish to post details of
our operation on the list, contact details are as follows
P.O Box 5083
Phone: 09-438-5472
Fax: 09-438-5473
NOC E-mail: noc(a)ubernet.co.nz
NOC 24 Hour phone: 021715823
Since we don't currently have an AS(We are in trails after all) so our
details …
[View More]have not been sent to http://usenet.net.nz/noc/ at this point
We have the ability to peer at APE and invite interested parties to
contact peering(a)ubernet.co.nz if you are interested in peering. Above
internet services we have some clients with hosted dedicated servers so
I invite all companies peering at APE to get in touch
Now that the formal stuff is out of the way I have a favor to ask from
the list:
Does anybody have a server sitting on a APE connection that they would
be willing to allow us to download and upload a 10mbit file to for
throughput testing on Monday the 28th? FTP access suits us best, would
only need it for the day and the file is random data from /dev/null, if
anyone does can they contact me via tristram(a)ubernet.co.nz or via my
mobile listed below
And just to make sure its on topic there is some beer for anyone able to
grant us the above request
Cheers

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 …
[View More]at all times and
consequently a full set of routes.
