I may have jumped the gun a bit - although the name is suggestive... It looks like CnS Systems, Inc is a business in NC...

PGP keysigning in Miami!
by bmanning＠karoshi.com 01 Feb '02

01 Feb '02

We will be holding a PGP Key signing party at the NANOG meeting in Miami. We have been scheduled to meet at 22:30 on 11 Feb 2002 in the Trade Room of the conference hotel. The procedure we will use is the following: o People who wish to participate should email an ASCII extract of their PGP public key to <bmanning(a)karoshi.com> by noon on Monday 11 February, 2002. Please include a subject line of "NANOG PGP KEY", and please avoid MIME-encrypting your e-mail. (I will be running the entire mail folder file through PGP, and PGP-keys that are base-64 encoded will get ignored unless I take manual action to fix things. I will try do the manual fixup, but I make no guarantees about catching all of them.) The method of generating the ASCII extract under Unix is: pgp -kxa my_email_address mykey.asc (pgp 2.6.2) pgpk -xa my_email_address > mykey.asc (pgp 5.x) gpg --export -a my_email_address > mykey.asc (gpg) If you're using Windows or Macintosh, hopefully it will be Intuitively Obvious (tm) using the GUI interface how to generate an ASCII armored key that begins "-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----". o By 6pm on Monday, you will be able to fetch complete key ring from the following URL with all of the keys that were submitted: http://www.ep.net/nanog23.pgp o At 10:30pm, come prepared with the PGP Key fingerprint of your PGP public key; we will have handouts with all of the key fingerprints of the keys that people have mailed in. o In turn, readers at the front of the room will recite people's keys; as your key fingerprint is read, stand up, and at the end of reading of your PGP key fingerprint, acknowledge that the fingerprint as read was correct. o Later that evening, or perhaps when you get home, you can sign the keys corresponding to the fingerprints which you were able to verify on the handout; note that it is advisable that you only sign keys of people when you have personal knowledge that the person who stood up during the reading of his/her fingerprint really is the person which he/she claimed to be. o Submit the keys you have signed to the PGP keyservers. A good one to use is the one at MIT: simply send mail containing the ascii armored version of your PGP public key to <pgp(a)pgp.mit.edu>. Note that you don't have to have a laptop with you; if you don't have any locally trusted computing resources during the key signing party, you can make notes on the handout, and then take the handout home and sign the keys later. - bill

Hmm...I'm still able to reach that site as of 3:30 Mountain time. Perhaps his service hasn't been discontinued after all. We can only hope, though. Surely Qwest won't continue to let this bonehead use their network. Perhaps this is actually a Qwest front company and they're trying to lure people into using their bulkmailing services. By doing this they can get a lot of the bulk mails to at least have the same set of source IP addresses making them easier to filter for the rest of us. :-) Sort of like a honey pot for idiots, because in this case they'd even be paying to use it.

I just had to call that number on his web page and ask if it was some sort of joke, The guy there "Paul" didn't have any idea that his services were disrupted, and he even seemed excited at the prospect of doing some Bulk/Spam Email for me.

Here are a few references that address the issue of packet sampling accuracy: http://www.inmon.com/PDF/sFlowBilling.pdf http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/92/HPL-92-35.html http://www.caida.org/outreach/papers/1993/asmw/ I don't know of any other published studies. However, I have been involved in a number of unpublished tests in which sampling was demonstrated to produce valid results with sufficient accuracy (provided that suitable sampling rates and aggregation periods are selected).

Of course, perhaps its a way for Qwest to increase revenue. As follows from Qwest's TOS page, section 3 http://www.qwest.net/nav4/acct_tools/con/account.html Among other things, the AUP prohibits sending unsolicited e-mail messages including bulk commercial advertising or informational announcements ("Spam") and Qwest will immediately terminate any account which it believes, in its sole discretion, is transmitting or is otherwise connected with any Spam. In addition, because damages are often difficult to quantify, if actual damages cannot be reasonably calculated then you agree to pay Qwest liquidated damages of five dollars ($5.00) for each piece of spam or unsolicited bulk e-mail transmitted from or otherwise connected with your account, otherwise you agree to pay Qwest's actual damages, to the extent such actual damages can be reasonably calculated. 5 Bucks a pop, and if your sending 1000's of em lol Cheers -Joe > ---------- > From: Daniel Lark[SMTP:dlark@elmresources.com] > Reply To: dlark(a)elmresources.com > Sent: Friday, February 01, 2002 1:51 PM > To: 'Christopher Schulte'; 'Richard Welty'; nanog(a)merit.edu > Subject: RE: Re[2]: OT: Interesting email I received > > > Looks like SPAMHAUS has 'em.

I'm wondering if the originator of the email was "trying" to set QWest/National up by sending this email out, that is, someone simply spammed it in hopes National-isp got the boot/warning from their peer for violating TOS. Do the headers indicate its origin?

We've been tracking spam closely as the geeks in the back room are homebrewing 'SpamShredder'.. and Andrew (the head anti-spam programmer) told me today that just over 50% of what we are seeing is coming from Qwest controlled IP's, mostly low end resell dial-ups.
