RIPE NCC Service Interruption on 29 December
by gerard＠ripe.net 29 Dec '05

29 Dec '05

Dear Colleagues, [We are sorry for any duplicate mails you might receive] Early this morning we experienced a hardware failure with our network equipment at our office, between 02:45 and 06:10 UTC. Affected services were: - internal maildelivery to our ticketing systems were delayed - RIS website was unreachable - TTM online plots generation was not possible Our investigation has shown that the problem was a faulty interfacecard on one of our core switches. The immediate fix was to repatch affected servers onto another interfacecard. The long term solution is that we will replace this switch. We apologise for any disruption or delay this may have caused. If you have any further questions about this matter, please send an e-mail to ops@localhost. Kind regards Gerard Leurs, RIPE NCC

can we / do we want to enforce mail policies ? Is it our bussiness?
by Tiberiu Ungureanu 15 Dec '05

15 Dec '05

Hello Until today, i thought mail is for everyone. But today a customer of the ISP i work complained about not being able to send email to one of his co-workers, because his IP Address is in Romania. So here I am, testing: -------- CUT HERE --------- [tbb@Hydra tbb]$ telnet 195.41.47.12 25 Trying 195.41.47.12... Connected to 195.41.47.12. Escape character is '^]'. 220 watt.pil.dk ESMTP Postfix helo pil.dk 250 watt.pil.dk mail from: tbb(a)ines.ro 250 Ok rcpt to: nanna(a)baconcph.com 554 Service unavailable; Client host [80.86.96.6] blocked using ro.countries.nerd.dk; Your IP is in ro, rejected based on geographical location Connection closed by foreign host. -------- END HERE ---------- Now... I think this is stupid. Anyone has same opinion? OR all romanians should be banned from using a computer? Should I complain to RIPE-NCC? Can they help? (Afterall, they delegated the 195.41.47 block) Should I ask permision from RIPE-NCC to register my IP space in a different country? -- Tiberiu Ungureanu Network Engineer iNES Group SRL - Internet Dept.
