Then when the ISP figures out they have a bulk spammer for a custmoer they can not shut down the spammer because the spammer gets a court order to enforce the service agreement. Same goes on the other side. Many BLs have been sued, AND LOST, for putting spammers on their BLs. Put those two together and no technical solution will fix the problem. If legislatures say Pi is equal to 3 then there is not much we can do to fix it except fight the legislature. RGDS GARY --- Gary E.

RE: IETF SMTP Working Group Proposal at smtpng.org
Yo Robert! How about moving this discussion to a more appropriate list? Nanog is not the place to discuss spam and we are re-inventing the wheel, badly, on nanog. Half the spam I get is from throw away AOL, netzero, earthlink, etc. accounts. Spend $10 for a new ISP account, sent 10,000 emails with MY return address which is valid and on whitelists. Do it on a long weekend and get 30k out before you get stopped. If the spammers can not run their own name servers then they will just use someone elses. Last I checked there where over 6,000 ISPs in the country. Cancel them one place and they just go to another. RGDS GARY --- Gary E.

Charge an annual registrar fee per company, not per server. (Something like $100 a year) The more they have to go out of their way to get their spam server online, the more they would be deterred to do so. They're only going to want to change so many ISP's, go through SWIP and then change their legal name for the registrar so many times.

Uh, no. I have seen spammers use dynamic DNS to use throw away dial-ups accounts for incoming main service. How about moving this to an approriate forum where people really know spam and mail? Nanog is for moving packets. Nanog does not usually care what is in the packet unless it is a routing protocol. RGDS GARY --- Gary E.

Right, but to run a real mail server you need a static address. Which can be registered as a valid mail server. Dynamic IP's cannot. Read what I wrote again. Do not say it is not possible, I see it every day. These people, and others will be happy to help you set it up: http://www.no-ip.com Do you own a domain name? Run your own web, mail, ftp, or any server connected your cable, dsl, or dialup connection using your personal domain name. Do some googling before posting nonsense... Doesn't mention anything about Nanog is for moving packets. An anti-spam/security discussion seems perfectly acceptable to me. From the proposed nanog FAQ: Off-Topic Questions 1. Spam 2. Local DNS [...] So take this topic to somewhere it belongs. RGDS GARY --- Gary E. Miller Rellim 20340 Empire Blvd, Suite E-3, Bend, OR 97701 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel:+1(541)382-8588 Fax: +1(541)382-8676

Yep. Anything gets behind and it all gets behind. That is why we run multiple copies of MRTG. That way polling for one set of hosts does not have to wait for another set. If one set is timing out the other just keeps on as usual. RGDS GARY --- Gary E. Miller Rellim 20340 Empire Blvd, Suite E-3, Bend, OR 97701 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel:+1(541)382-8588 Fax: +1(541)382-8676
Re: CA Power
Yo Martin! If there is plenty of power in CA then howcum there was a stage 2 alert yesterday and a market alert today? Today's projected demand equaled available resources today If demand played out as expected there would have been big trouble in CA today.

RE: How do I log on while in flight?
Yo Scott! Several services will do what you want. They are ALL expensive. One of them is Orbcomm: http://www.orbcomm.com They have several FAA TSOed (a.k.a. certified) redios for aircraft usage. With Orbcomm you can send and receive email, weather fax, etc. Echo Flight is one reseller of Orbcomm service to small airplanes: http://www.echoflight.com There service is $10/month plus $1/email The FAA is currently funding several competing data-link projects. The idea is to force vendors to give away basic services to all airplanes and be allowed to charge for premium services like email. Details at: http://www.avweb.com/oshkosh/osh99/day5/fis/index.html Icarus has their SatTalk II phone. It allows cell phone like connections while inflight. See them at: http://www.icarusinstruments.com/ But is this really on topic for nanog? I was not going to post until I started seeing some bad answers...

For example a person is in flight cross-country and needs to do a videoconference, send email from his network to interested parties, or any of the normal things we do from the ground. Is this possible or would it interfere with the plane's other systems? scott

Yo Scott! On Thu, 27 Jun 2002, Scott Weeks wrote: Also, that the cellular network could crash if cell phones are used at altitude seems like a big security hole to me. Boeing has repeatedly stated that it is not stupid enough to make airplanes that will fail because someone in the back has an electronic device on. Ossama would love that if it were so. It is the FCC, or the individual airline that bans electronic devices, not the FAA. The FCC bans most (not all!) cell phone in flight because cell phones are line of sight. So on in-flight cell phone ties up a LOT of cell towers on the ground. Air ambulances routinely ignore this rule and I am sure a lot of people are alive today because they do. One of the airborne certified vendors of airborne cellular is AirCell: http://www.aircell.com Garmin sells the NavTalk Pilot which is a combination GPS, ground cell phone and airborne cell phone: http://www.garmin.com/products/navTalkPilot/ GTE Airfone is a ground based phone TSOed (a.k.a. certified) for in flight use in small airplanes. They are at: http://www.airfone.com Being ground based it does not have the latency problems of Sat Phones. The bad part is in only works when you are in the air. The airline bans electronic devices just to shut up the little old ladies. My favorite is please turn off you PDA for takeoff. Huh? All the On/Off sitch on the PDA does is turn off the screen...
