Hi, Does anybody have a workaround. for .nz MX records I would not have thought it would have been possible to break the MX DNS for a .NZ via a .com fuckup. I would think it can be fitted domestically untill the .com situation is sorted, it is afterall in the .nz namespace see below Thanks Stephen --- MAILER-DAEMON(a)yahoo.com wrote: > Date: 16 Sep 2003 23:46:40 -0000 > From: MAILER-DAEMON(a)yahoo.com > To: axpunix(a)yahoo.com > Subject: failure delivery > > Message from yahoo.com. > Unable to deliver message to the following > address(es). > > <erkel(a)eaudio.co.nz>: > 64.94.110.11 does not like recipient. > Remote host said: 550 User domain does not exist. > Giving up on 64.94.110.11. > > --- Original message follows. > > Return-Path: <axpunix(a)yahoo.com> > Message-ID: > <20030916234640.38894.qmail(a)web13601.mail.yahoo.com> > Received: from [165.84.100.16] by > web13601.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Tue, 16 Sep 2003 > 16:46:40 PDT > Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2003 16:46:40 -0700 (PDT) > From: Stephen Sheehan <axpunix(a)yahoo.com> > Subject: test > To: erkel(a)eaudio.co.nz > MIME-Version: 1.0 > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > test > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!

http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&url=verisign.com I support what ever can be done to bring Verisign into line... I have reviewed the link (above) showing the dramatic effect of Verisigns "e-jack" and wonder whether there may be a parallel to the similar situation were Worldcom highjacked telephone traffic in the US to route it via Canada in order to "deceive and defraud AT&T into paying termination fees." Doesn't this action unnecessarily generate revenue and costs for networks which send and receive traffic to/from verisign.com site... Who is winning here anyone besides Verisign...

Domainz/SRS registrant data inaccuracies
by Juha Saarinen 17 Sep '03

17 Sep '03

Isn't there a requirement for registrants in .nz to provide accurate information? Look up: pheer.net.nz die.net.nz Does that look like a NZ phone number? Then there's waiariki.ac.nz, which was joe-jobbed by a spammer recently. The registrant and admin email bounces. -- Juha Saarinen

I think the point was that someone technical write it up in a single document which InternetNZ can then put forward -- that has the best chance of ensuring nothing gets overlooked and no one gets the wrong end of the stick through not being experienced with all the hands-on details. And if nothing else it's probably useful to have a single document to wave at people saying "these are all the bad things you've caused by doing this". Ewen

Re: [nznog] *.net and Exim 4

An explanation of dnsdb can be found at http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.20/doc/html/spec_9.html#SECT9.9 The condition quite simply uses the lookup expansion via dnsdb to look up the a record for $sender_address_domain (ie the domain name of the sender address). If there is a successful lookup it returns the value of the lookup (ie the resolved address) or simply an empty string if the lookup failed (this stops exim throwing an error). It then compares the result with the string "64.94.110.11". If they match it returns true, and thus the ACL declines the message, otherwise false. Note that I am not actually using this condition myself because I wrote a condition using SQL to check against a whole bunch of addresses instead, but I figured some people here would be less fortunate :) Good luck! --- James Tyson Director, Giant Robot Ltd http://www.giantrobot.co.nz/
