And do you think they will have it set up for allocation of Static
IP's??
Current Jetstart/5GB plan and static IP assignment are 'incompatible',
supposedly, as this are not properly routable (must be nat'd or somit')
This is a marked improvement in contrast to pricing plans they've
provided in the past, and
they appear to have listened to what their customers have been asking
for. Good on ya,
Telecom.
But I guess there will always be complainers.. :)

Great Event. Well run, good attendance. Attaboys all round. Sorry to

InternetNZ has enjoyed supporting the NOG, and has agreed to consider

FWIW, Dean's talk wasn't solely about people spoiling the net for newbies
(although there's a lot of that too), but also that they're
inadvertantly doing dumb things because it's not obvious that it's dumb
and it's not obvious that there's a better way to do it. (For instance
consider a newbie …
[View More]mailing out a 10MB attachement to the whole company
when they could have just sent a link.)
To that end I think that "seamless integration" of the local network
(and local machine) and the Internet is counterproductive -- there
really are differences and sometimes you've still got to be aware of
them. (Not everyone has a gigabit link to their house yet.)

Indeed. That was basically my point in one of the talks, that whatever
restrictions you put in place would be "routed around" by those with an
incentive to do so. Okay you're down to "mere applications", but
applications -- especially those used by newbies -- are notoriously
insecure. (Some of them even have extra, designed in, insecurity.)
Jamie (Baddeley)'s suggestion of thin client is perhaps one of the few
ways you might get enough control over the end appliance to control
things; another is perhaps Knoppix-style bootable-readonly-device (or
perhaps something PS/2, Xbox, etc like).
My point was that you can get 75% of the immediate benefit of a "newbie
applicance network" right now simply by firewalling customer connections
at the edge -- and that if you do, please provide an opt-out mechanism.
(I'd really prefer that it wasn't necessary to buy, say, a E1 link
(wholesale connectivity) in order to get reasonably unfiltered access.
And tunnelling everywhere sucks.)
That said, short of a rigorous punishment technique,[0] rigorously applied,
I don't think we're going to get all of those that spoil the 'net.
