If you're on the list, can you contact me? You're being used to send out spam through your tagline.hushmail.com service, which redirects to arbitrary URLs either by design or because it's been compromised. Google shows it's cropping up in list archives all over the place. ( http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=tagline.hushmail.com&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=… ) PGP-encrypted spam....I would think this is a serious issue for a privacy/security-focused operation. I've filled in the web form a couple of days ago, but no joy and no ticket number. Alexander Harrowell

NANOG 45 Updates - Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
by Joshua Snowhorn 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Greetings! We are fast approaching the start to the first NANOG outside of mainland North America in beautiful Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. We are excited about the agenda and the spectacular venue (especially the weather). The agenda can be found here: http://www.nanog.org/meetings/nanog45/agenda.php As a reminder, full payment for standard registration (US$525) must be postmarked by 01/15/2009. Registration on or after January 16th as well as payments processed on-site will be US$600, so please hurry up and make your plans. The Dominican government is throwing a welcome party for all NANOG attendees at Columbus Square in the colonial district of Santo Domingo. This venue is surrounded by structures built as early as the 1400¹s. The national dancers will be performing along with traditional music, food and drink. Busses will leave the NANOG hotel beginning at 7:30pm on Sunday the 25th and will circulate approximately every 10 minutes (the journey is less than 10 minutes). This is something not to be missed! We would also like to remind you that Lightning talk submissions are open and the Program Committee will be selecting the first three talks this week. If you have an idea, please submit an abstract as soon as possible. The earlier you submit, the better your chances at getting your talk accepted. http://www.nanogpc.org/lightning/ We all look forward to seeing you in 12 days for the start of an exciting NANOG! Cheers, Josh Josh Snowhorn as the NANOG 45 Host and for the Program Committee

I once had a legitimate difficulty and posted to this list as a direct result. As I was moderated at the time, my post was denied with the provided reason that it was not appropriate for this list. An attempt to identify the source ISP of a troublesome IP was not "appropriate" but the below (and etc.) is? Still, still, exercising undue discipline - unlike others. -- Scott Berkman wrote: > , drop, and roll? > > -----Original Message----- > From: Aaron Imbrock [mailto:aimbrock@gmail.com] > Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 1:12 AM > To: NANOG(a)nanog.org > Subject: > > Stop >

What to do when your ISP off-shores tech support
by Matthew Black 11 Jan '09

11 Jan '09

I've had difficulties reaching anyone with a brain at my DSL provider Verizon California. I can reliably ping the first hop from my home to the CO with a 25ms delay. But if I ping any other location, packets get dropped or significantly delayed. To me, this sounds like Verizon has an internal routing problem rather than a problem with my phone line. Note that it rained recently in our area and the cable vault in front of my is usually covered with stagnant water because the gutters don't drain it away. I have tried to explain this to tech support but they refuse to go off script, even the supervisors. They keep insisting on sending a tech to my home when I suggest this should be escalated to their network operations team. Anyhow, if I can reliably ping the first hop from my home, would that eliminate my telephone connection as part of the problem? Just a sanity check on my part. Thanks. matthew black california state university, long beach

XO -- Plea for engineer to contact me
by Owen DeLong 10 Jan '09

10 Jan '09

I apologize to the list, but, I'm at my wits end. Can an engineer with clue PLEASE contact me regarding ticket 1781923. I cannot get past the phone operators to speak to an engineer about a misconfiguration on the XO side with my service. I don't know what's actually in the ticket, but, I'm not requesting a major configuration change. The BGP session _IS_ working, except XO is failing to accept a single prefix from us which XO assigned to us. The response I'm getting from customer care is not matching these facts. Thank you, Owen
