Yes, that's fine but this year I've just had to renew my registration with the incumbent and I'm kind of stuck with that until August next year. andy - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

No, I can't afford .nz names being a broke and unbribed hack. Current Fees($NZ) New Domain Name Fee $44 New Nameholder Fee $30 New Secondary DNS Fee $18 Exclusive of GST Too expensive by the looks of it. > InternetNZ does not use Bonzai Buddy as the purple clashes with the > office decor. > > The orgies continue unabated of course...

At present the .nz registry is with DOMAINZ and they have a range of fees depending if you are an accredited provider or if you register direct through their website. DOMAINZ is also the sole Registrar. InternetNZ is 90% through implementing a shared registry system which will go live later this year. Only Registrars will be able to access the registry and there will be a standard fee of $2+GST per month per name. DOMAINZ will continue as a registrar offering registration services. From late this year there will also be other competing registrars whom you can choose to register through, if you so wish. There will no doubt be a variety of prices charged, lenths of terms available and other choices such as bundling of services etc. DPF - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

domain renewal fee

Afternoon, Just wondering if anyone knows why the annual renewal fee has gone up for .nz domains? Got a piece of a tree in the mail the other day mentioning that renewals have gone up a few bucks a year. Granted other costs have gone down, but for those who already have domains are going to wear the punch.

newzealand.com UDRP attempt coming up!
by Andy Gardner 23 Sep '02

23 Sep '02

http://arbiter.wipo.int/domains/cases/2002/d0600-0799.html Check out case D2002-0754 newzealand.com We're not told who is attempting to get the name. They keep all the case details secret until the decision is made, and then you only get to see what the "arbitor" decides you NEED to see. Perhaps a journalist here might like to contact the current name holder and ask him? It would be interesting to find out exactly who thinks they have enough rights over the term "New Zealand" to be allowed to wrestle it out of someone elses hands via the UDRP. Once they've got newzealand.com I guess nz.com will be their next target. -- Andrew P. Gardner barcelona.com stolen, stmoritz.com stays. What's uniform about the UDRP?

NZNOG conference 2003
by Chris Hellberg 17 Sep '02

17 Sep '02

Roger, I've lost the origional email about the conference, but what I'd like to see next year is someone involved from the early days of the NZ interweb. Somone who flicked the switch on the 4K8 link to NZ, or who ran the origional NZ DNS or similar would be interesting - grey hair types preferred ;) Cheers, Chris - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Mail blip today?
by Simon Lyall 16 Sep '02

16 Sep '02

Did anybody else see a big jump in mail volume (as in bits/second) between 4pm and 5pm today? I think it was a combination of mailouts by travel.co.nz's (90-something kilobytes) and finewineonline.co.nz (1.6 Meg of "I accidentally included our logo" ) but it might be something else I missed that was affecting only us. -- Simon Lyall. | Newsmaster | Work: simon.lyall(a)ihug.co.nz Senior Network/System Admin | Postmaster | Home: simon(a)darkmere.gen.nz ihug, Auckland, NZ | Asst Doorman | Web: http://www.darkmere.gen.nz - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Can people peering with Orcon Internet (AS17746 192.203.154.66) at APE, please peer with 192.203.154.67 as well with the same prefix-list as the 1st. Also if you wish to MSDP and/or MBGP peer please let me know. Please let me know when/if you have set this up.

RE: BGP Private ASes
by Andy Linton 12 Sep '02

12 Sep '02

I'm pleased to see this thread generate lots of discussion and I've thought some more about my position on this. I think the community should look at a number of things: 1) I think from postings from Philip Smith, Joe Abley, myself (and others) it's clear there is a mechanism for applying for globally unique ASNs and it is possible to get them assigned where need can be demonstrated. There may be an additional cost associated with this. Clearly such an ASN can be used anywhere on the net including Citylink or the APE. This should be the preferred option for anyone who wants to peer in whatever form with more than one other entity. Private ASNs should be reserved for use between two entities. This may well cover Simon's WIX route reflectors. Perhaps ISPs, telcos, and other organisations like Citylink should create mechanisms (if they don't already have them) to enable their customers to obtain ASN numbers from APNIC where those customers need an ASN. (My cynical mind makes me suspect that there may be some resistance to this as it may be perceived that customers are using this to avoid charging, connect to another provider etc. Please prove me wrong! Public declarations on this list might help.) 2) Additionally there is a mechanisms also identified in previous postings for obtaining IPv4 address space for multihoming. Explore those mechanisms if you *need* address space. 3) It would be good if we could work together to make the WIX model work efficiently. Some larger providers might wish that there were only larger providers peering at the WIX. That clearly isn't the case so it would be good to see them sit down with Simon Blake and work out how to get efficient and redundant peering working. 4) Ditto the APE. 5) If people want address the related but separate problem of using RPSL and the routing registry mechanism to express their public policy (and automatic generation of filter lists etc) then start trying to understand policy in terms of the provisions of RFC2622 and RFC2650. I'm happy to work on this with people when I get back to NZ in November. Others have said the same but I'll let them put their hands up. If you intend to do this please strongly consider using the APNIC service coming shortly. I posted yesterday that the service was hosted in Brisbane and mirrored at RIPE. They are also investigating the deployment of redundant services using anycast on four separate continents. How redundant do you need the service to be? andy - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
