Your SPF record includes "spf.protection.outlook.com", which has no TXT 
records associated with it. Sounds like an Office365 problem.

Returns results for me now too, perhaps it's been flaky?

Well, I'm not sure what you're implying here, but having met the 
Senetas folks at trade shows, and listened to their CTO (Julian Fay) 
talk crypto on the Risky Business podcast, my only take-away is that 
they seem like a bunch of friendly, down-to-Earth, super-cluey crypto 
nuts, with widely used/well respected products.


Who, as an Australian company, are bound by our ludicrous Access and 
Assistance Bill, requiring them to be able to break the crypto on their 
devices.

Re: [AusNOG] FTTC

Wasn't the Optus Cable infrastructure essentially deemed beyond recovery 
after wasting buckets of money on it, and so those areas are being 
rolled FttC from scratch?

I remember asking them this same question, and I **think** they

any copper pair could be used for FttC, however since they have
gear in the pits that handle a limited number of services each,
they may limit the number of services per premises. Obviously MDU
would be a special case and should use FttB.

I do have a note that ordering FttC on inactive copper pairs has
the same fees as FttN, which is around $300 once-off.

By the by, without a mechanism for the eSafety Commissioner to match 
content (a common mechanism for electronic fingerprinting material 
across hosting providers), the eSafety Commissioner will find 
themselves playing whack a mole chasing content specific to each 
hosting provider.


What do you think that looks like, exactly? You've brought up this

multiple times, with no response. I think it's irresponsible to suggest

This is wildly inaccurate, as evidenced by YouTube's Content ID (at an 
estimated cost of ~$60 million USD to develop, yet still horribly 
flawed), and the recent submissions as part of the backlash against the 
Article 13 copyright directive introduced in the EU.

The silence on the Assistance and Access Act since it passed in 
December has been deafening. It was firmly understood, on 
representations by the Liberal Government, that the bill passed was 
passed as an expedient, yet now we have the third report from PJCIS 
due 3rd April, and yet another round of submissions from corporations 
large and small, industry luminaries and human rights and legal 
experts, all saying that basically we're where we were back in 
September 2018, when Dutton rather disingenuously reported to the 
House that:


"The government has consulted extensively with industry and the public 
on these measures and has made amendments to reflect the feedback in 
the legislation now before the parliament."


Yet no matter how many submissions are made to how many parliamentary 
committees, we now seem stuck with a deeply flawed Act, the Liberals 
are walking backwards on the Labor amendements, while the country's 
police forces now operate with sweeping interception powers well 
beyond what's necessary and proportional.



Because, of course we are - anyone who thought we'd be anywhere else 
today was living in a fantasy land.  And you can thank Labor for this, 
on account of being completely spineless weasels, almost as much as the 
Libs for ramrodding this disgusting mess through in the first place.  
Tech policy in this country is an absolute joke.

@Peter - Hey mate, I never said our nameservers would server records, 
I said the server itself would not go looking as it would assume that 
as it hosts the website, and has DNS records, that it itself is 
authoritative. This is basically how all Control Panel like systems 
function (cPanel, Plesk etc).
Our nameservers are not responding incorrectly, or at all in this 
circumstance, it's just the server not making a DNS query as it 
assumes it has that information already haha!



Can't you just point the resolvers on the box to another recursor, 
rather than at the cPanel DNS server, to fix this? Clearly I don't have 
much experience with these terrible control panel things, but this 
sounds like a pretty broken mode of operation, or perhaps there's a 
missing integration point that should be leveraged to avoid this being a 
customer problem.

This sort of hand-waving is how we end up in trouble - now would be the
