[swinog] Swisscom Uplink Major Outage in Zurich
Hello, does anyone have a good status map / contact at Swisscom to find out what's going on? The outage seems to hit major parts of Zurich, including the links to Interxion, Glattbrug.

As you know, I pretty much respect you, but in this case I absolutely cannot agree with you. Imho, any ISP should refuse with all power it has to even install such a global filtering mechanism into his network. We all know that the topics change (child porn, nazis, terrorism, copyrighted data, unwanted politics, hacking, crypted data, your site) (maybe even in that order), as time goes on. So what you propose is a central administrated filtering mechanism, which is one of the worst things that can happen. Just thing of RIAA or chinese government controlling (as in "political influence") those boxes. I personally will propose every ISP that implements that strategy for the BigBrotherAward, killing the last freedom in the internet.

I called the hotline and told them about my problems; then they told me to click start and enter "cmd" and I told them that I am not running windows, but they can tell me what they want me to check. Then he told me that he does not know what to check, just the commands to enter, which he would not tell me, because I don't have windows. Sigh. So I was pushed to 2nd level support. Re-explained that guy the problem and he stated he's to forward it to somebody else. One day after that (today morning) I was called back, re-explained the issue and stated that I think that the nat is the problem. Took me about 10 minutes arguing that this in not Linux' fault. Then he send me a useraccount/password/apn to use for testing and I should give him feedback in a few days.

[swinog] About (not) Swisscom UMTS
A sunny good morning everybody! I just got my hands on Swisscom "Mobile Internet" using Sierra Wireless Compass 855. With the "normal" "private" mode they put you in some 10/8 network and do NAT. Just as a normal 08/15 I experienced that booking a ticket on sbb.ch can be almost impossible, as sbb.ch either has a session handling problem or swisscom has a nat handling problem (maybe a bit of both). Interestingly, I also often experience the "your session is invalid/timed out" message from sbb, when just accessing the timetable function. Other than that I see that my (idle) ssh connections get cut (600 seconds works < cut < 1000 seconds idle does not work). As far as I can remember, Orange always provides you with a non-rfc1918 ipn. Can somebody confirm that behaviour and/or report what happens with the other providers? I am now testing their "Corporate Application Access", which simply means "got a real username, got a real password and a different apn" which results in a (fixed?) non-natted ipn.

I'm wondering if there are any network service providers here that run any of their routing infrastructure within Quagga running on FreeBSD. I'd like to know what software alternatives are deployed out in the field, and how large a shop utilizes such software methods instead/combined with standard hardware router offerings. If this is a relatively common practice out there, what size environment do you run it in, and at what level within your network?

Don't know whether I really like the idea being dependent of MySQL as backend, but it is at least one possibility to do central administration. > Yet again, it all depends on what you need and what you are used to... Well, it does not really depend on what I am used to for me (anymore). I am currently really thinking of giving postfix a try, but it somehow "feels" like stepping backwards.

[swinog] Mail server - Unix
Hello! Just wanted to ask what setup you use or recommend for large scale sites (~10k users, some hundreds of imap(s), smtp, webmail connections, about 5-10 mails incoming and outgoing per second): - what smtpd? why? - what mail retrieval solution for which protocol? - if you offer webmail, what do you use? - it should be *nix software, preferable FOSS (free and open source software) - Which Antispam / Antivirus "protection" do you use? And what is the success rate? I'm personally deep into qmail+patches+patches+patches of patches plus courier and dovecot. The problem with qmail is that you need either a big patchset or a once patched setup and reuse that. Plus qmail really has some not-so-nice bugs. On the other hand, there seems to be no MTA out there, that can be configured so easy like qmail (ever created a mail addr with "cp .qmail-template .qmail-domain-user" with another MTA?).

The wlan network here was very well used, also by people using CLEAR TEXT PROTOCOLS, which then let me discover MORE CLEAR TEXT PASSWORDS.

Btw, please fix your typo3 installation. So far, I am happy not to have found more insecure connections.
