Dear all,
please note that we expect an outage of the mailing list, as the hard
disk of the list server is about to die. We need to replace it asap.

Don't forget to check the PSU and the cabling. I have had a couple of
times that especially the PSU was the problem and not the disk itself...
(Which reminds me that I have to get a new PSU for one of my older
boxes...)

According to the whois entry, they are located in Utah, which has 8 hours of time difference to Switzerland... So they'll probably notice it in 1-2 hours... :-) Cheers, Viktor On Montag 29 November 2004 14.35, Stefan Rothenbühler wrote: Hacked by realloc ;) Thats nice.

We dumped this afternoon the current setup, and plan to restore it onto a new harddisk tomorrow morning. Please expect some more downtime. Please note that subscription changes from tonight will be lost. We hope the the broken disk will survive until tomorrow.

Re: [swinog] Cheap tricks with MX records? Load balancing for MX servers
Matthias Hertzog schrieb: Alternatively, the way of adding two MX records with the same priority would be an option too, but i'm not sure if this is enough balanced in the daily business. The distribution is pretty good, although the alphabetically first (or first in the Zone file) seems to get a slightly higher proportion of all traffic. MXs with highest priority usually gets an over-proportional amount of spam, since some spammers choose those MXs for tactical reasons (based on the thought that such mailservers are often shared by several users (ISP customers!) and have thus less stringent spamfilters. BTW: Failover is not the goal of this installation, it's really only the balancing. You get failover as a plus - if one machine dies, standard compliant senders should use any of the other ones. -- Matthias -- Brain-Log http://matthias.leisi.net/ ___ swinog mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.init7.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

The servers targeted by the screensaver have been manually selected from various sources, including Spamcop, and verified to be spam advertising sites, Lycos claims. I'd like to know how will they manually choose which spammers they'll go after? Personal e-vendetta? It'll just cause the spammers to use the zombie networks more and more. It seems to me to just be an advertising gimmick, not a solution. scott ___ swinog mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.init7.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog

I think it a nice attempt to get the spammer at their root. Ok, it generates additional traffic, but I think it's worth a try, let's see.

Re: [swinog] makelovenotspam.com
Hi [x] weapon (choose which suits you best)? Suppose I'd be a black hat. I would register a domain and perform massive spamming - making sure I'm really getting noticed. Lycos now blacklists this domain, targeting their Screensaver-DoS-Zombies to that site. I'd just point my A-records to the website I want to take down and Lycos does all the hard work of DDoSing that page for me. Thanks, Lycos! Great tool!

Re: [swinog] makelovenotspam.com
Fredy Kuenzler wrote: Big topic at Nanog, anyone already debugged IP flow of the new No need to debug, the website explains it all: 1. The screensaver sends a request to view a SPAM source site (it's only a request, so you won't actually see the page). 2. The request is then sent to a database solely consisting of web webpages that use SPAM to promote their products. 3. When a large number of screensavers send their requests at the same time the SPAM web pages become overloaded and slow. (They're not disabled completely.) What an euphemism for a DDoS-tool. And there is even an OSX-version of that screensaver. yay. Daniel ___ swinog mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.init7.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
