Dear diary, on Thu, Nov 07, 2002 at 12:31:33PM CET, I got a letter, where Andrei Robachevsky <andrei@ripe.net> told me, that...
Hi,
Hello,
There's no need for the RIRs to actually do anything, besides give up the blockade position "the 6bone is not a RIR and per the RFC, only RIRs can do reverse delegation under ip6.arpa". Have IANA delegate e.f.f.3.ip6.arpa to the same set of servers as e.f.f.3.ip6.int (as per Bill Manning's request that was denied due to RIR disapproval), and be done with it.
We are looking for a pragmatic solution to this technical problem. This will be discussed with the other RIRs in the course of the next week and at IETF. We expect to have a solution in place by the end of November.
since it's Nov 30 today, I would like to ask about progress in this issue. Thanks in advance, -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis .
I don't know why people still want ACL's. There were noises about them for samba, but I'v enot heard anything since. Are vendors using this? Because People Are Stupid(tm). Because it's cheaper to put "ACL support: yes" in the feature list under "Security" than to make sure than userland can cope with anything more complex than "Me Og. Og see directory. Directory Og's. Nobody change it". C.f. snake oil, P.T.Barnum and esp. LSM users -- Al Viro . Crap: http://pasky.ji.cz/
