exodus abuse contact / Mosaic Data Solutions
by just me 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

I've been bombarded for weeks now by attempts to relay spam from Mosaic Data Solutions, an Exodus customer. Logs and complaint sent to abuse(a)exodus.net yielded, surprisingly, nothing. I've nullrouted all their blocks, (thanks rwhois.exodus.net!) but the inbound SYNs keep coming. They've been at the top of my list (http://mrtg.snark.net/nullstats.cgi) for at least a month. Is there anyone at c&w/exodus thats interested in dealing with a chronic abuser like Mosaic Data Solutions? thanks. matto --mghali(a)snark.net------------------------------------------<darwin>< Flowers on the razor wire/I know you're here/We are few/And far between/I was thinking about her skin/Love is a many splintered thing/Don't be afraid now/Just walk on in. #include <disclaim.h>

EveryDNS Down?
by Mike Damm 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

Sorry, slightly off topic, but they seem to serve quite a large number of domains. Is anyone having problems reaching domains with EveryDNS hosted name servers? It appears even their offsite machines are not responding. --- Michael Damm, MIS Department, Irwin Research & Development V: 509.457.5080 x298 F: 509.577.0301 E: miked(a)irwinresearch.com

Last Call for Participation: Peering BOF VI at NANOG
by William B. Norton 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

Several folks have asked me for a list of who is participating at the Peering BOF VI at NANOG. Here is a list of who I have so far: Steve Schecter Net Access Corp AS8001 Chris Malayter TDS Telecom AS4181 Celeste Anderson USC/ISI AS226 Daniel Golding AOL/Time Warner AS1668 Shawn Solomon Indiana Telecom Net AS1767 Chris Caputo Altopia AS6456 Ingrid Erkman ICG AS2551 Matthew Ploessel ToneLink AS26322 Ren Nowlin SBC AS7132, 5673, 5676, ... Patrick Gilmore Akamai AS12222 Louie Lee Equinix AS14609, 9989, 17819 Allison Feese BroadWing AS6395 Joe Provo RCN AS6079 Joe Klein Adelphia AS19548 Pete Kruckenberg Utah Educ Net AS210 We can take maybe 10 or so more Peering Coordinators. If you would like to participate, please fill out the form and send it to wbn(a)equinix.com. http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0302/norton.html For the BOF we'll have each Peering Coordinator stand up, introduce themselves, talk about their network, what they look for in a peer and why other ISPs/CPs should want to peer with them. On the screen behind them will be their contact info (Name,email,AS/Company Peering URL) along with answers to the questions about Peering Inclination (Content Heavy, Access Heavy, Open Peering vs. Multi-Site requirements, etc.) and Current/Planned Peering locations. This has proven to be a valuable way for Peering Coordinators to meet each other and make that initial contact for establishing peering. ( It is much easier when people recognize you from your 3-5 minutes of fame.) Comments/Suggestions welcome. Bill >Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 08:16:02 -0800 >To: nanog(a)merit.edu >From: "William B.

RE: att.net email issues?
by Jack McCarthy 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

One of my clients is having this exact problem as we speak. Their MX record lists the correct domain name and IP but when they send mail out, the domain name stays the same but the IP is different. The public IP, not the MX record IP, gets associated to the email. I'm wondering if is the cause... --- Andy Dills <andy(a)xecu.net> wrote: > Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2003 12:01:34 -0500 (EST) > From: Andy Dills <andy(a)xecu.net> > To: Jim Popovitch <jimpop(a)rocketship.com> > CC: nanog(a)merit.edu > Subject: RE: att.net email issues? > > >>On Fri, 24 Jan 2003, Jim Popovitch wrote: >> >> >> Chris at UUNet help determine this is a rDNS issue. att.net seems >> to have started rejecting email from mail servers that don't have a >>proper reverse DNS entry.

Customer moving colo. Opinions please.
by Chris Johnston 24 Jan '03

24 Jan '03

I have a client that is looking to move from one colo facilty to another more provider-neutral facility. They are wanting to be able to purchase transit directly from several carriers without being steered one way or the other. So, if they want 100mbits from carrier 'A' and carrier 'B', they simply want to pay a cross-connect and be done with that part. Of course fees to the tranist provider would be paid. So with that said, what are the list's preferences regarding OneWilshire vs. Equinix in Los Angeles? Do any of the tier[1-2] guys prefer one over the other? We have seen both and most of the big players are in both. What about the more middle guys? The peering in EquinixLA seems about ready to take off. While PAIX at OneWilshire is just getting started. Does anyone expect one of the peering effors to dominate and the other stagnate? From a "being able to purchase transit" point of view, they both seem an excellent choice. From a "how does the wiring look" point of view, one of them ... ahem ... needs improvement, *cough* 4th floor. So, I guess the whole point is, "what am I not seeing that would steer me (nee, my client) towards one or the other?" Chris Johnston <chris(a)routerguy.com> 714-306-5746 949-653-8819 (fax)

hello. i've created a new way to search the ipv4 and ipv6 routing tables of the internet. i'm not soliciting bgp feeds for my data set (i may at some later time but i need to think about more long-term disk space and database performance issues before i do that). hope people find this useful. http://puck.nether.net/bgp/ - jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared(a)puck.nether.net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
