Hi All,

Honestly... if Microsoft is the Solution I'd rather keep my problem.

Jokes aside... They are simply trying to play the "we are bigger than you"-game 
- which isn't really working. Never has.

Isn't that already the case for some providers? I always tell customers if you 
use Speedtest, the only thing you're measurement is going to tell you is: How 
fast is your Link to Speedtest (or whatever you use). This, most of the time, 
does not reflect any real-time scenarios...

AFAIR, we do already have this situation with UPC

In the end... if you choose the wrong provider (especially as a service 
provider) and find out later you're in for some massive work (renumbering, most 
of the times). I am currently evaluating new links here since we're going to 
have FTTH soon. For private users it's relatively easy to change.

Most of the time, the end-customer unfortunately won't really get what's wrong 
anyways. "I'm with  so it must be good" is what I hear 
quite often.

Re: [swinog] datacomm/vtxnet and quicknet/kfsb are missing TLS on their mailservers

2018-02-02 Diskussionsfäden Tobias Goeller
Hi Tobi

Well, you actually *can* technically enforce TLS. I'm not saying that it would 
make any... but if you want to revive don quixote one more time... yes, you can.

I would be happy already if people would create working SPF records with 
enforcement for all domains  (and stop using outlook and thinking of exchange 
as a technologically sound mailserver)

Even big financial companies fail at creating SPF Records... and wonder why 
they have so many bounces.

I do have mandatory TLS for some domains... but not as a global requirement 
(although... in a perfect world...)

Re: [swinog] Cablecom Winterthur blocking outgoing SMB connections?

2007-12-12 Diskussionsfäden Tobias Goeller

Hi Jeroen,

First of all, it's a transparent proxy so there's nothing like a
proxy.pac or anything else for configuration. The proxy just sits there,
listens and filters. Can be done with a variety of tools like squid,
dansguardian and some more. The most advanced I know is the proxy
combination Astaro uses at current. My installation is - by far - simpler.

Second, I'm not talking about users who know what they're doing. The
users I host are in fact users who have absolutely no clue about what
they're doing at all. Some of them even struggle with right-clicks and
left-clicks. If they click, it's mostly the very well known
"klick-you-should-not-have-done". It's challenging for them to use
E-Mail. And it's even more challenging for them not to open up a message
of a sender they don't know.

It's the sort of users AOL may be sending away because they think this
kind of people should not be allowed to use electricity at all.

And, to make one thing clear: I'm not serving 1000s of users. I'm, in
fact, serving about 10-20 users in the neighborhood. As I get all the
calls when something goes wrong anyway I have choosen the proxy to get
rid of those IE, FF & MSN viruses.

The virus-scanner included in the proxy is keeping out most of the stuff
(and there's quite a lot according to the log-file).

For skype this is not yet possible. But for "my" users, they're not even
using it with the exception of about two or three of them.

I absolutely agree with you that the solution I have is probably an
(perhaps even excellent) solution for a problem that should never have
existed in the first place.

True. I don't know Cablecom's network structure but I think blocking
outgoing traffic will deny you to connect any other share, too (since
you're not able to open a CIFS connection).

The users I have on my network are only allowed to access the really
required ports. Direct SMTP and other funny things as well as SMB/CIFS
is blocked by the firewall. As for MSN (ieck!) I only allow the
chat-protocol - downloads are blocked.

I really don't want them to open up shares over the internet especially
since they really have no clue what they're doing (if they weren't my
neighbours they'd probably use AOL).

If they use VPN, however, this is not blocked in any way.

No, I actually can't. But I would very much appreciate it if it were the
case. If you have a closer look at your firewall-log you will probably
see why. CIFS is not a protocol I would use for exchanging files over
the internet directly. I don't care if there's a vpn below - but direct
CIFS is not what I would recommend at all.

I have a current malicious traffic of about 100KBit/s coming from some

Not entirely. There are some MTAs around where you can't switch this

well, it's about a very efficient way for spamhaus to decrease their

(DNSBL providers behaving that way can't be considered professionals and

Well, In my point of view this makes about the same sense as if we'd
take the decision to start up something like a new standard for
inter-ISP-communications (ever thought about IPv7, maybe IPv7.25?) - for
switzerland only.

This would just move the source of the problem to another point - but
would not help solve the problem: SPAM.

Sorry, but the internet is a medium almost without any fences and doors.
The whitelist would be enhanced soon by entries for german ISPs who are
partners of swiss ISPs, soon then there will be all german ISPs in (and
the french, and the italian, and so on).

At the end we would have a 4-TB Oracle Database with the IPs of any ISPs
mail server system - just for a whitelist... hmmm. Why don't we start up
a second RIPE? Sponsors?

The swinog mailinglist has a whitelist already - and if you're trying to
reach someone participating you already have two ways of how to get in
touch with who you want to contact: direct mail or via list.

Re: [swinog] swiss jurisprudence regarding spam

Quoting Attila Kinali <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

The regio protection is already declared illegal in Switzerland.
Or why do you think you can here to buy a region-free
dvd player while you cannot in Germany ?


[..]


BTW: It's also illegal to sell copy protected
music CDs that carry the compact disc label[1],
as they do not conform to the compact disc standard.


Please don't mix those up, they're 100% independent each from another.
The first
thing is a legal fact valid for switzerland, it is swiss law (iirc
"Verbraucherrecht").

The second is a copyright / patent issue brought up by philipps who is
the owner
of the Compact-Disc standard. All others using this label are licensing this
standard.

Since those Copy-Protected CDs do not comply with this standard,
Philipps sees a
patent-violation in this.

Meiner Meinung nach dürfte die dt. Polizei solche Dinge gar nicht im
Ausland eintreiben. Der Server steht - so wie ich Dich verstanden habe -
in der Schweiz. Das heisst, die dt. Polizei müsste ein Rechthilfegesuch
in der Schweiz stellen und die zuständige schweizer Behörde müsste hier
die Daten einsammeln.

... das wäre sonst in meinem Verständnis in etwa so, wie wenn die
Badenwürttembergische Polizei einen Radarkasten vor dem Gubrist
aufstellen würde  oder die deutsche Polizei in der Schweiz nen
Einbrecher festnehmen wollte...

Ich bin mir nichtmal sicher, ob Du überhaupt solche Daten ohne
Rechtshilfegesuch ins Ausland geben *darfst* (Datenschutz).

In meinen Augen hat die Polizeistelle in Deutschland hier ihre
Gebietsrechte verletzt...

Gruss
Tobias

That depends on your ISP.  If it's Bluewin or Cablecom it doesn't
really matter.  If it's some other ADSL ISP then yes, you are not
the ideal customer. ;-)



ok, in that case I will add some more customers to reach the 20GB/day :-)

apt-get install bible-kjv-text
