Here's the current draft list of NZNOG speakers for 11 and 12 July. Work
is continuing on clarifying one or two other contributions. This looks
to me like a strong two-day programme.
802.11a
- Matthew G. Brown, B & R Holdings
Distributed Denial of Service: The current state and counter measures
- Juergen Brendel, Esphion Ltd
IPv6 for Dummies (and not so Dummies)
- Dean Pemberton, Juniper Networks (Aust.)
Multicast Development
- Greg Shephard, Juniper Networks (USA)
Multicasting - an Introduction to the Technology and Applications
- David Robb, Telecom NZ
Multitenanted VoIP and the VoIP Market in New Zealand
- Roger De Salis, Cisco Systems
NLANR Active Measurement Project
- Tony McGregor, The University of Waikato
Providing Outsourced Network Security Solutions
- Arron Scott, Cisco Systems
Residential Ethernet-on-Fibre
- Colin Goodwin, Ericsson NZ
RPSL
- Andy Linton, Lionra
Strategies for Managing Denial of Service
- Ian Quinn, Juniper Networks
Tracking and Quantifying DDoS Attacks
- David Moore, CAIDA (USA)
Any substantial addition - and such an addition is possible - would mean
that we'd need to go to a third day. If that were done, Thursday and
Friday 11 and 12 July would remain the days for papers, with tutorial
time on Saturday 13th.
A registration announcement should follow shortly.

http://www.five-ten-sg.com/blackhole.php These guys have their own SPAM filtering system which 'detects' dialups addresses and blocks them. to quote:
I generally list cable modem, dsl and adsl netblocks where the provider does not publish the customer contact information for the sub-allocations via either ARIN or rwhois. Examples of such providers include but are not limited to @Home and GTE.
Now our addresses showed up in his 'dialup' list. Probably since our
addresses are APNIC's, not ARIN's or his code is crap, or both.
Never mind the fact that blocking 'dialup' addresses in itself is a
flawed concept. Lots of 'dialup's are DSL or Cable these days,
ie: small businesses.

Did you contact him? That list is quite popular. -- Juha Saarinen - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

Yes, I did. I'm waiting for a reply.

I'd never heard of it until today. We use ordb and smapcop ourselves, but
personaly I find that trying to be too clever just causes more problems
and give a bad reputation to all the host blocking lists.

Sounds like the list operator is trying to be a smart bastard. They've only got the top /19 of our /18 in there, despite the fact that many of our dialup IP addresses were in the lower /19 until yesterday. We've also got a lot of static customer IPs in the upper /19. -- Matthew Poole "Ever wondered why cemetaries raise the cost of burials then blame it on the cost of living?" - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog

They are listed in the Spamassassin config but commented out with: # Overzealous, blocking sparklist.com and yahoogroups with Confirmed Spam # Source records. not recommended. -- 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
