Hi, I would just like to point out that this decision was hardly mine alone. It was a mutual decision amongst many admins, and many networks. I was not the one personally hurt in all this. I wasn't even involved in the original incidence, so to think that this is me acting out after having been pers...

[quote="Peter1976"]Silence, This is not the 90's anymore. If you have beef with some criminal you approach your police department and file a complaint, they will handle the rest. If you have problems with that, try Europol they have a new cybercrime division. Approaching the abuse@ contact and hopin...

Hi, We are not hoping to get any leverage at all. We simply do not want providers that have zero abuse control, or, in this case, a counterproductive one. The reason they were filtered was because they gave the kiddie the name of the operator. IE; leaking extremely sensitive information, resulting i...

agnostic One who is skeptical about the existence of God but does not profess true atheism. ok, so maybe i'm not true agnostic. i believe in the existence of god, but i don't follow any specific church. i guess there is no word for me. 'human', to reflect about the existance of God is human. I pers...

You should have no problem connecting to efnet.ipv6.xs4all.nl since it's open I-lined (*@*). What error do you get?

If you think this is hard work, try finding someone willing to host an .au ircd. I dare you...

Also, as a sidenote, I pretty much despise any idea that will cause lengthy arguments on the adminlist.

Eventhough I'd put it in different words, I pretty much agree with what seiki just said. ;-) Hiding servers in whois is just silly, and so is flattened links. I remember that I used to enjoy checking the routing of the network back when I was a user. I also enjoyed checking stats and other network r...

Hardy,

I too want to see an ipv6 server in north-america.
However, since the thread was "do we _need_ another ipv6 server?" I just considered the basic needs... and I think we can agree that we dont _need_ it, although we may want it.

I know.. im just being a smartass

I dont see the need for more IPv6 servers to be honest. I am of the firm belief that servers should only be linked when or if there is a need, exceptions for large ISPs that might attract their customers to efnet. As for IPv6, efnet.ipv6.xs4all.nl currently peaks at 1K users and is configured to hol...

Hey, Obviously the same rules apply for opers. Since we run spamcalc on efnet.xs4all.nl (the software used to filter DNS polluted clients), we arent going to allow our operators to use silly spoofs. Its the principal of not using the hostname to spam that applys here. I do understand how this might ...

Hey,

DNS pollution is a waste of resources.
Hardly something desireable...

Imo, its dns abuse, not following the rfc guidelines...
Im not rfc anal, but I think common sense is a good guideline here.

Probably an outdated thread.

But IRC split into efnet and ircnet during the summer of 96.

You can get the whole story on http://www.irc.org.

Have fun
