Re: Bell Canada contact - need help with DNS issue

2016-11-24 Thread Rich Lafferty
dnsadmin@ is no longer, but I was able to get a ticket past the 
front-line business support to an _incredibly_ helpful enterprise-level 
support desk who figured out what was going on and paged (!) their DNS 
team to intervene.


I figured that the depths of Bell Canada were innavigable but we managed 
to get a resolution a day sooner than a TTL.

Try dnsad...@bell.ca <mailto:dnsad...@bell.ca> ?  I haven’t used that 
address in quite some time but someone did respond to it some time ago

Hi,

Does anyone have a NOC or DNS administrator contact at Bell Canada? 
Their Toronto nameservers are returning SERVFAIL for our domain 
freshbooks.com since a general Bell DNS issue midday yesterday.



$ dig freshbooks.com @207.164.234.129

No-one outside Bell is reporting issues, and other domains (ours or 
otherwise) are fine on Bell’s name servers.


Thanks,

Re: starwars.com subdomain hijacked?

2010-11-30 Thread Rich Lafferty
Novator (Canadian web-shopping company, used to be FTD's big partner) is 
responsible for shop.starwars.com so I think all that's happened here is 
Novator forgot to renew a domain.

domainsatcost.ca is rebel.com is Momentous.ca and they own 
yourdomainhasexpired.com.

 Redir'd to a advert site, instead of a default DomainsAtCost.ca holding 
 page or...nowhere.
 
 Apparently quickly renewed and given back to the original owners.
 
 Who's at play here?  Does DomainsAtCost have a deal with Rebel.com?  Or are 
 they the same company?
 
 It all seems fishy to me.  Is this normal practice?

 The expiry day is 11/22/2011, so if I were to guess I would think that the 
 domain expired, sent to an advert page, and was just renewed.

 Smartest attack is to put up a page that looks exactly the same as the
 legit site, but with your own cheaper crappier knockoff starwars paraphenalia
 ('duke', 'tewey', 'princess luba') that you sell instead and make the huge
 profits.
 
 Not to give anyone any ideas that werent obvious like 15 years ago.
 
 How anyone can tell the internet is legit at a glance is beyond me. Need
 to hookup firefox's security warning to my speakers to get a modicum of
 alert that SSL is busted, to start, nevermind anything more creative.
 
 That phishers manage to fake sites that look wrong is also beyond me, what's
 so hard about 'save page as'?
