Actually, the unit still works as an e-mail filter. You can still access the Barracuda reputation list with it and it does SPF and Baysian filtering still. It also lets you configure black lists and other RBLs as well, so it still has utility. The thing that you don't get is updated SPAM and

Well look what was in my in-box this morning! Looks like Barracuda Networks is sending out spam again. Maybe word is getting around about their less that value-full renewal policy. Could it be that people are starting to resent being taken advantage of?? See my response below their message.

Thanks to all for your suggestions. We've had several other problems with our Barracuda box as well including the fact that it is very under-powered and that the web interface for admin stuff seems to freeze up and only send partial http responses back after log queries. Think will probably

ARIN IP6 policy for those with legacy IP4 Space

2010-04-07 Thread John Palmer (NANOG Acct)
Was looking at the ARIN IP6 policy and cannot find any reference to those who have IP4 legacy space. Isn't there an automatic allocation for those of us who have legacy IP space. If not, is ARIN saying we have to pay them a fee to use IP6? Isn't this a disincentive for us to move up to IP6?

Re: ARIN IP6 policy for those with legacy IP4 Space

2010-04-07 Thread John Palmer (NANOG Acct)
Yah, thats what we are thinking here. We'll probably stick with IP4 only. Sounds like ARIN has set a trap, so that virtually any contact with them will result in the ceding of legacy rights. We'll be sure to avoid any such contact. Thanks everyone for the info. John - Original Message
