Hi Please take a look at this manual http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/db-start.html It covers exactly this situation - a new user wanting to create their first objects in the RIPE Database. regards Denis Database Group RIPE NCC Martin Stanislav wrote:

Hi Roberto,

I assume your maintainer has an auth attribute with MD5 hashed password since you ask where to place the password in an email to auto-dbm@ripe.net.

Please, place a line

password:your_maintainer_cleartext_password

within your email. Please don't forget to separate this line by an extra line (whitespace) from any other objects within your messages body and replace "your_maintainer_cleartext_password" with an appropriate string.

Cheers,

Martin

Hi,

this is my first message :-)

I should create person and inetnum objects for my customers.

Are these forms correct?

person: John Doe address: via Street, 11/A address: City (TV) I-31030 Italy phone: +39 0423000007 fax-no: +39 0423000001 e-mail: johndoe@domain.com nic-hdl: AUTO-1JD (<= it will be JD3-RIPE) notify: role-mailbox@xyz.com abuse-mailbox: abuse <mailto:abuse-mailbox@xyz.com> -mailbox@xyz.com changed: role-mailbox@domain.com source: RIPE

and then:

inetnum: 200.100.100.100 - 200.100.100.104 netname: Acme descr: Acme Co. descr: via Street, 11/A City (TV) I-31030 Italy descr: phone: +39 0423000007 fax : +39 0423000001 country: IT admin-c: JD3-RIPE tech-c: ROLENH-RIPE status: ASSIGNED PA mnt-by: XYZ-MNT changed: role-mailbox@domain.com source: RIPE

Where should I set the password of the maintainer? In the "Authorisation" tab? Thanks!! Roberto Matteotti
