PGP auth?
by Gert Doering 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

Hi, with the old RIPE DB, PGP auth did only work with "inline" signatures (the "classic" PGP way), not with "MIME/multipart" signatures (the way "mutt" does them, and maybe other programs, and as this e-mail is signed). I remember that the new DB software was supposed to do MIME, and also MIME/multipart PGP, but it didn't work when I tried that ("request denied, forwarded to maintainer"). Could you please elaborate what the current state regarding MIME and/or PGP support is? thanks, Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- SpaceNet AG Mail: netmaster(a)Space.Net Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 14 Tel : +49-89-32356-0 80807 Muenchen Fax : +49-89-32356-299

See example: > Indeed, we tried to introduce as little changes to objects look as possible, while staying RPSL compliant. In fact, RPSL defines members attribute as: Attribute Value Type as-set <object-name> mandatory, single-valued, class key members list of <as-numbers> or optional, multi-valued <as-set-names> which means that one can have multiple 'members:' attribute, each of them may have a list of members separated by commas. So, formally there is no RPSL syntax violation. You can update your object to make it look like in RADB, both examples are accepted and valid in the RIPE database.

auto-rpsl@ripe.net MIME parser problem and auth failure
by Daniel Roesen 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

Hi, the auto-rpsl(a)ripe.net robot MIME parser doesn't understand quoted-printable encoding. I think it should. Second, all our updates are failing with "authorisation failed". Our objects are protected by a maintainer object with PGP-Auth. I guess there is a problem with signature verification Best regards, Daniel Roesen -- Entire Systems GmbH - Ferbachstrasse 12 - 56203 Hoehr-Grenzhausen, Germany InterNIC-Handle: ES1238-ORG RIPE-Handle: ESN10-RIPE Tel: +49 2624 9550-55 GnuPG/PGP Key-ID: 0xBF3C40C9 http://www.entire-systems.com/noc/noc-key.asc GnuPG/PGP Fingerprint: 1F3F B675 1A38 D87C EB3C 6090 C6B9 DF48 BF3C 40C9

New RPSL Query of aut-num objects
by Sascha E. Pollok 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

Dear Folks, apologies if this has been discussed before or is considered not being relevant to most of you but if I do a query like below, the main difference (beside the new RPSL-look-and-feel of course) is that the as-block: object is shown AND that there is one space missing as a separator between field-descriptors and the content of the field compared to all other objects. Again, this might be irrelevant to most of you that do /(\S+)\s+(.*)/ or whatever but I just wanted to ask.

Migration of the TEST database is completed
by Andrei Robachevsky 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

Dear Colleagues, The TEST database has been successfully migrated to v3 software. All objects in the TEST database were converted to RPSL compliant format. You can continue using the TEST database till 14 May as follows: - <test-dbm(a)ripe.net> mail robot accepts updates in RIPE-181 format with some limitations. - <test-rpsl(a)ripe.net> mail robot accepts updates in RPSL format. After that day changes in robots' functionality will follow the plan fro the production database. Please see http://www/ripencc/pub-services/db/rpsl/announcement.html and http://www/ripencc/pub-services/db/rpsl/index.html for more information. Finding objects in the TEST Database: Do whois -h test-whois.ripe.net <Search String> e.g. whois -h test-whois.ripe.net PB3-TEST The whois options that work in the RIPE Database also work in the TEST Database. We invite you to try them. Regards, Andrei Robachevsky DB Group Manager RIPE NCC

First phase of the migration to the new RIPE Database is completed
by DB-News 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

Dear Colleagues, The new version of the RIPE Database is now up and running! All objects have been automatically converted to RPSL and loaded into the new version of the Database. The first phase of the migration has been successfully completed. The following mail robots accept updates to the RIPE Database: <auto-dbm(a)ripe.net> - updates are accepted in RIPE-181 format and automatically translated into RPSL. However, several restrictions apply to such updates: empty and misspelled attributes are not allowed, PGP auth is not supported. Also, RPSL authorization rules apply. <auto-rpsl(a)ripe.net> - updates are accepted in RPSL format. This setup will be in place till 14 May, 2001. For more information about the migration please visit http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db/rpsl/announcement.html and http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db/rpsl/index.html Best Regards, Andrei Robachevsky DB Group RIPE NCC
