To facilitate "de-bogonising" the RIPE NCC advertises some of the
prefixes from the newly allocated ranges from our RIS beacons. We do
this for a few months before starting allocating them to LIRs.

for those nodes that choose to use root-servers.org as a publication
method, that might be true.  I take your note to mean that 
www.root-servers.org
is up to date wrt the publication of deployed sites for the K

Yes, that's what I meant.

Where can a person go to get a "one stop" WHOIS query for AS and prefix
information instead of trying ARIN, then RIPE, etc?
RIPE database mirrors RADB, APNIC, ARIN, VERIO and JPIRR. You may use 
'-a' flag with whois query to search through all the sources.

Should we, as a community, register with RIR's with PGP.
Each of the RIRs has either already established, or is in the
process of establishing, a CA for that purpose.  Please use
them.
thanks, but i choose to have my peers certify my identity, not the
rirs
the rirs already accept pgp certs.  and i use them, as do all
security-conscious registrants.  i was disagreeing with woody's
pushing x.509 certs to the exclusion of pgp certs.

   I would note that the RIPE NCC, while implementing X.509 support,
is moving away from the concept of running their own CA.  Their
X.509 support will be very "PGP-like".   See the following for details -
http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-46/presentations/ripe46-db-x509.pdf
Yes and no. For the RIPE Database authentication pgp and x.509 will be 
equally accepted with no CA involved as such. This is different from 
x.509 certificates the RIPE NCC issues for the members, only to 
authenticate themselves while accessing RIPE NCC services.

RIPE NCC network affected by the DDoS attack

2003-02-27 Thread Andrei Robachevsky
Dear Colleagues,

Starting from 14:00 UTC today, 27 February, RIPE NCC network suffered a
large DDoS attack. It was a distributed ICMP echo attack.
The attack caused various congestion related problems for the RIPE NCC's
network, to the extent that our BGP peering sessions were affected, and
non-ICMP traffic was being randomly dropped.
The attack was successfully mitigated with cooperation of our peer
networks at AMS-IX. Network condition returned back to normal at 16:30 UTC.
As a result some of our services, including www.ripe.net (web),
whois.ripe.net (RIPE Database), ns.ripe.net (DNS) and ftp.ripe.net (FTP)
were not accessible during this timeframe. Now all services are back to
normal.

Yes, we at the RIPE NCC are working on such list. However the task, as 
you said, is not as easy as it seems to be. We have to be confident in 
the data we publish and this requires some work especially regarding 
early registrations.

There are also efforts by the RIRs to make allocation records more 
accurate and appearing in the right RIR, the ERX project for instance 
http://www.arin.net/registration/erx/index.html.
