broke Inktomi floods?
by Gadi Evron 22 Jan '05

22 Jan '05

Inktomi (now Yahoo!) sends it's spiders all over the Internet. Lately some of our systems are reporting that they open many HTTP connections to our web sites, without ever sending any data and immediately disconnecting. This is getting to a level where it disturbs us. Is something broke over there? I can't seem to be able to reach them and this is becoming a real annoyance. Anyone else observing this? -- Gadi Evron, Information Security Manager, Project Tehila - Israeli Government Internet Security.

Multi-Router Looking Glass (MRLG) Version 5.1.0 has been released
by John Fraizer 22 Jan '05

22 Jan '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The latest release of the Multi-Router Looking Glass (MRLG) is now available at: ftp://ftp.enterzone.net/looking-glass/CURRENT/ You can see it in action at http://www.ip-guru.com/mrlg/ There are patches available to patch from version 4.3.0 to 5.0.0 and then from 5.0.0 to 5.1.0. If you are running a version of MRLG prior to 4.3.0 it is extremely important that you upgrade. Some of the updates are listed below. Multi-Router Looking Glass Version 5.1.0 Tue Jan 18 08:40:30 EST 2005 Multi-Router Looking Glass allows network administrators to execute commands on multiple routers via a nice web interface. Changes for version 5.1.0 * Implemented Net::SSH::Perl routines to allow SSH access to routers. * Added debug routines to code to aid in debugging config file when adding a new router. * Changed code to set $login_user to 'no_login_user_defined' if 'login_user' is not set in config file. *Change required by SSH routines. * Changed code to set $login_pass to 'no_login_pass_defined' if 'login_pass' is not set in config file. *Change required by SSH routines. * Cleaned up code to allow easier modification/debugging. * Added 'use_ssh' config parameter to config file to tell MRLG to use SSH. * Added 'use_port' config parameter to config file to tell MRLG to use a specific port for all connections to a specific router. If you're configuring MRLG for Cisco routers, you'll appreciate this one as it will make your config file much shorter! * Added 'debug' config parameter to config file to tell MRLG to output debug information for a specific router. * Added $::writable_directory config parameter to config file to tell MRLG where to store the known_hosts file that is created by Net::SSH::Perl when an SSH connection is used. Changes for version 5.0.0 * Integrated patch supplied by Jeff Barrow to support username/password authentication for devices that require a username to log in. * Upgraded code to use Net::Telnet::Cisco. * Added a few  tags for Google-bait so I can look and see how many people are running my code. Please leave these in place. I get a kick out of seeing all of the different networks that use this code. * More features coming soon - IE; SSH support! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB8bS1NnFN6q2MXL4RAkDrAJ4swg36K/fwqwPdQX1sBn3fy/wmiQCfTNYx Stz8zj7j+He6LzV8eH/rEHo= =aJow -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

RE: Please Check Filters - BOGON Filtering IP Space 72.14.128.0/19
by James Laszko 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

Well, if the router CAN run BGP, the feed from Cymru is only about 84 prefixes - not a lot of memory tied up there, is there? If the router isn't capable of BGP, someone earlier today was kind enough to post a script that they use to find changes to one of the BOGON lists and suggested an Expect script to automatically update their router. Probably a little advanced for most leaf sites, but for someone who's responsible for a larger network -- doesn't seem that bad.

INOC-DBA setup help?
by matthew zeier 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

If this is OT, my apologies. Trying to setup an INOC-DBA account after it was mentioned here a couple weeks back. I'm stuck after setting up a user account waiting for the organization's admin (me) to approve it. operator(a)pch.net hasn't responded to any of my emails but I don't know how active that address is. Is this still a live service? If it's simply a matter of waiting more than four some weeks and I'm not patient enough, let me know :) - mz -- matthew zeier - "Curiosity is a willing, a proud, an eager confession of ignorance." - Leonard Rubenstein

Registrar and registry backend processes.
by Michael Loftis 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

I think, briefly, that we need to force Verisign and the registrars to be FAR more public about the backend process for WHOIS data and for the TLD zone data. Especially with .com, .net, and probably .org, and this latest failure of 'the system' and the obvious lack of information on 'the system.' It's clearly broken, and needs to be put up for public review by 'the powers that be' so that it can be fixed. What's happening now feels close to a boiler room poker game, noone seems to know all the players, and even fewer know all the rules, so in the end everyone is a loser. I know this is adding fuel to the proverbial fire, but apparently we need to burn out this thing so we don't get scorched by yet another unexpected fire.

As someone who used to "do" a great deal of managed network services, I can certainly attest to that. - ferg -- "Christopher L.
