Internic takes Alternic to court
by Cameo Wood 23 Jul '97

23 Jul '97

After nearly a two-week spree, the hijack of the InterNIC Web site ended when a lawyer representing Network Solutions Inc. delivered a civil action lawsuit against Eugene Kashpureff, who is scheduled to appear in court today at 9 a.m. EDT. Kashpureff, operator of the renegade top-level domain registry AlterNIC, fooled most of the Net's nameservers into changing the identity of the www.netsol.com and www.internic.net machines to that of his own. Due to the distributed nature of the network, DNS may still resolve to AlterNIC through some nameservers - even though for Kashpureff, the gig is up. "I turned it off at 12 p.m. yesterday when that lawyer called me," Kashpureff said Tuesday, not sounding as chipper as he did in earlier times. Network Solutions Inc. filed suit in US District Court in Alexandria, Virginia, seeking to shut down Kashpureff. Kashpureff denies most of the allegations and accusations. "I haven't had time to get ready [for the hearing], due to the nature and the speed of it," he said. "We do not intend to redirect the domain names of the InterNIC or of Network Solutions any longer and will promise the court not to do that, and hence they don't have any reason to take any immediate action against me." Network Solutions, which is still in its pre-IPO quiet period, refused to confirm or deny anything: "We still have no comment on that situation," a spokesperson said. But apparently, it is swift and vehement action that Network Solutions has called for. "The part I really want you to know, and the part that I want you to care about," Kashpureff explains, is the contents of the 42-page civil action itself - which calls for a complete seizure of all his computer equipment, including any data on magnetic storage. "They're turning me into a child pornographer," he said. "Read just how bad they're trying to rape me and the public - there's some very inflammatory statements about .com, .net, and .org in this document itself." While most network operators do not support Kashpureff's actions, his protest of the InterNIC monopoly strikes a common chord in many, including Aaron Abelard, who cites Network Solutions' unwillingness to work toward a compromise in allowing more top-level domains. Karl Denninger, president of MCS Inc., which also < provides alternative top-level domains, agrees. But he certainly doesn't agree with Kashpureff's tactics. "I do not support this kind of terrorism," he said. "This won't make me very popular with anyone over at the AlterNIC camp, but I hope he does go to jail."

Etiquette, et.al.

Before you engage in DNS ramblings or any of the other myriad off topic subjects, look at this (print it out and tape it to your wall if you have to) and see if you fit the bill. Noise dies down if no one responds to it! It is just so true, and we need to laugh at ourselves more. Q: How many internet mail list subscribers does it take to change a light bulb? A: 1,331: 1 to change the light bulb and to post to the mail list that the light bulb has been changed 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. 27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs. 53 to flame the spell checkers 156 to write to the list administrator complaining about the light bulb discussion and its inappropriateness to this mail list. 41 to correct spelling in the spelling/grammar flames. 109 to post that this list is not about light bulbs and to please take this email exchange to alt.lite.bulb 203 to demand that cross posting to alt.grammar, alt.spelling and alt.punctuation about changing light bulbs be stopped. 111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we are all use light bulbs and therefore the posts **are** relevant to this mail list. 306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique, and what brands are faulty. 27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs 14 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly, and to post corrected URLs. 3 to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this list which makes light bulbs relevant to this list. 33 to concatenate all posts to date, then quote them including all headers and footers, and then add "Me Too." 12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot handle the light bulb controversey. 19 to quote the "Me Too's" to say, "Me Three." 4 to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ. 1 to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup. 47 to say this is just what alt.physic.cold_fusion was meant for, leave it here. 143 votes for alt.lite.bulb. Please no flames on the list. If you must, do it privately.

Wait, the only noise I'm interested in is personal attacks. The more ridiculous the better. I still chuckle about the pink bunny rabbit thing. Of course, I'd prefer no noise, but if we have some non-operational content, I vote that it be made up of absurd personal attacks as much as possible. Oh, and "administrivia" such as this note. :-) Jacques Vidrine <nectar(a)staff.communique.net> > -----Original Message----- > From: Rodney Joffe [SMTP:rjoffe@genuity.net] > Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 1997 7:54 AM > To: 'NANOG' > Subject: Public Relations > > People...... > > [JV] <snip> > > I would humbly and respectfully suggest at this stage that you rethink > your use of this forum to engage in personal comments and attacks (as > inviting as they may be :-) because these things may come back to > haunt > you/us. > [JV] <snip> >

You've been retired for too long when you start believing that telco price == good deal for any package at all.

Well, maybe if you *were* the telco this *might* work a la FMS. :) In practice, though, I would want to have redundancy there in a simple way, namely through SDH or SONET. I believe this is what lots of carriers are negotiating amongst themselves (each not trusting the others to actually provide real PDH protection redundancy properly), which may be of some follow-on benefit to the retail market. Also, I think you will find plenty of people here who are so fed up with backhoe fade and broken PDH protection switching that they will pay good money for capacity provisioned over SONET rings. Ironically, facilities-wise, SONET is much cheaper than PDH support for protection-switching. > >You don't need an additional MUX, you don't need extra DAXCs, > >and you don't need to scurry around reprogramming lots of equipment > >when someone wrecks your fibre. > > It's technical staff who's doing all the scurrying.

While this is healthy cynicism about PNOs, there is the potential pain of heavy downtime penalty clauses that I hope all major ISPs and other purchasers have started getting written into their capacity contracts when they're paying anything close to normal prices. > My prediction is that redundancy of telco data services won't improve > at all until they find a way to reconcile need for redundancy and > desire to sell all the capacity they got. I don't agree. In fact, there are extant counterexamples. Unreliable service costs business, and SONET/SDH rings elminate most of the most common causes of unreliable transmissions facilities. I would hope that Worldcom's PNO side will lose alot of revenues, in the face of the recent cuts, which amply demonstrated their non-deployment of SONET rings along the fibre paths in question. They deserve it, too. Shame on them. Sean.

People...... Forgive my intrusion, but it has become clear over the last few days (ever since the dns hiccup, and the fiber cuts) that this list is monitored by many parties who are not directly involved with Network operations issues. This includes press (so many of you have been quoted recently), government agencies, and *clients*. I would humbly and respectfully suggest at this stage that you rethink your use of this forum to engage in personal comments and attacks (as inviting as they may be :-) because these things may come back to haunt you/us. There *is* such a thing as bad publicity. And I would venture that some of the so-called 'noise' that this list has seen recently has probably captured the interest of regulators who will find a way to use our juvenile antics to our disadvantage. Besides this, you may be looking pretty foolish to those people who pay your bills, your *customers*. Please, think about this before you dash off a vitriolic response in future. If you must, why not cc it to the few who appear (from prior comment) to have an interest? And keep it off NANOG. Thanks....

Re: Nameserver madness
by Karl Denninger 23 Jul '97

23 Jul '97

Ok folks, this has gone way too far. First and foremost, let me clear a few points up. 1) I never supported Eugene's antics or his piracy (nor cache poisoning) which he engaged in. 2) We updated our BIND versions on ALL our nameservers, including the two listed below, within a few hours of his games beginning, so that we would NOT distribute or load bad data. 3) We *DO* run a completely separate faction of enhanced DNS, known as eDNS. This has NOTHING to do with Mr. Kaspuereff or his antics. 4) Our nameservers were not "polluted", nor will they be in the future. We are running BIND 8.1.1 which prevents this from happening. 5) We do not, never did, and won't support the kinds of games which Eugene pulled. I disagree *vehemently* with the IAHC and iPOC, and believe their process is both improper and possibly illegal. Nonetheless, that you believe someone is breaking the law and all boundaries of ethics does *NOT* entitle you to go and do the same in "retaliation". Two wrongs do NOT make a right. 6) Your blocking of the IP addresses is *NOT* effective. Eugene's stunt was not quite as simple as you might think; he was deliberately hitting nameservers with recursive requests to force them to load his data. You would have to isolate yourself ENTIRELY to be completely free of the problem through your method. The PROPER fix is to load the newer BIND code which doesn't suffer from the weakness which was being exploited. MCSNet will take immediate and strong retaliatory action against *ANY* ISP which blockades our network in this fashion. It is one thing to block packets from our network for something which we have in fact done. It is quite another to do so based on "guilt by association" and flat-out untruths. It is my hope that you will reconsider this insanity, and drop the filters in 192.160.127.x. We are *NOT* your enemies, but we can become them if you insist on it. A prompt response is appreciated and expected.

It all seems to land under item 6, except for the light insults (item 4). DNS politics (non-ops aspect of alternic's purposeful cache corrcuption) Registry politics (the "nsi-monopoly" stuff) socioeconomic politics (the "who's a capitalist?
