Re: Long-term (hours+) solution for power outage: PBX, lights, and computers
You've probably already ruled this out b/c the building and office layout, but maybe a fueled generator running outside would work. Since there are local small UPSes, and people are onsite, there would be time to get the generator setup. Run some heavy duty extension cords to the office window. Solution cost $3,000 This one is 450 lbs. Runs for about 5-10 hours depending on load and offers up to 15,000 watts http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS/EN_US/diy_main/pg_diy.jsp?CNTTYPE=PROD_METACNTKEY=misc%2fsearchResults.jspBV_SessionID=1789588186.1157201532BV_EngineID=ccciaddikeljdmdcgelceffdfgidgim.0MID=9876 ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

COX blocking own users outbound email
A few years ago there were heated discussion about whether or not ISP's should be blocking SMTP traffic (port 25) from dynamically assigned IP addresses. Long time internet users viewed port 25 traffic as part of the inherent bundle of services and internet connection provided by any ISP should include. Those who worked at ISP claimed it was just the same thing a pizza delivery car that won't deliver to some neighborhoods because its too dangerous. Internet traditionalists responded that many innocent parties were being harmed by these actions. ISP techs responded well its only a few geeks that actually want to us their own outbound SMTP on port 25 (When they took the Jews away I kept quiet because I wasn't a Jew, when they took the teachers away I kept quiet because I wasn't a teacher...) Internet traditionalists responded that the fundamental nature of this action harmed the internet because it acted as and allowed ISP's to enforce censorship. (Network information theory on the value of networks confirms this by the way). Today the damage has taken another significant step forward: http://www.wichitalinks.com/coxspam.html The cox network is deleting their own customers legitimate outgoing email, routed over Cox' own mail routers.. And isn't even telling them when they do it. This is one more brick in the wall. -- Jeff Kinz, Emergent Research, Hudson, MA.
