Issues in New York?
by Rob Thomas 29 May '03

29 May '03

Hi, NANOGers. This post is on behalf of Alif Terranson. If anyone can lend a hand or share insight, please pass it along! Thanks! We have all manner of equipment freaking out at State Street's POP, and can find no reason for it: M20's, BSNs, Yurie's, etc. Some of this equipment isn't even on public networks, or in any way connected to other "freaking" equipment, so we are at a loss as to what's happening. Some of our stuff has rebooted, and some of it has simply ceased to function: obviously, our #1 candidate is a local power issue, so we are looking for any "me too" incidents we can find. Is anyone else having issues down there? Replies on or off list appreciated. Alif Terranson Savvis Communications (314) 628-7602 Thanks, Rob. -- Rob Thomas http://www.cymru.com ASSERT(coffee != empty);

I'm looking for organizations or individuals that have existing wireless (802.11, MMDS, etc) connectivity across international borders in eastern Europe (former Soviet republics), Asia, Africa, or the Middle East. Also of interest are connections that are in the planning stages that are running into difficulty with the governing authorities. Information will be kept confidential; please reply off-list. Tim

RE: Need DNS server outside my own network
by Mike Damm 29 May '03

I would recommend the DNS-Swap list (http://www.ironclad.net.au/lists/dns-swap/) It's very low volume (<2 posts/mo) but when someone actually posts something you generally receive some good responses. It covers the entire spectrum from swapping secondary for a few zones to swapping colo for offsite secondary. --- Michael Damm, MIS Department, Irwin Research & Development V: 509.457.5080 x298 F: 509.577.0301 E: miked(a)irwinresearch.com -----Original Message----- From: Stephan Schwab [mailto:sns@caimito.net] Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2003 3:39 PM To: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: Need DNS server outside my own network Hello all, I'm seeking co-location or a dedicated server outside my own network for a DNS and MX server.
