ripe mailserver responing 4xx
by Marco Hogewoning 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

Just noticed, after I made a typo on an address the RIPE mailserver responds with 4xx temporary error on a non-existing user. Is this deliberate and why not send a 5xx permanen failure. -- aut-dbm(a)ripe.net SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<aut-dbm(a)ripe.net>: host postboy.ripe.net [193.0.0.201]: 450 <aut-dbm(a)ripe.net>: Recipient address rejected: Try again later: retry timeout exceeded -- Grtx, MarcoH

Re: [enum-wg] New Documents available: RIPE-384, RIPE-385]

Dear Antoin, It is certainly possible to add a new organisation object type, like "ENUM", to be specifically used by the ENUM registries. This would involve the changes to the RIPE Database. I suggest you to contact ENUM-WG and DB-WG working group chairs to check first whether this change would require only a mailing list consensus or PDP, and then maybe put together a proposal for ENUM-WG and DB-WG and submit it to the appropriate mailing lists. -- Katie Petrusha RIPE NCC > > From: "Antoin Verschuren" <Antoin.Verschuren(a)sidn.nl> > > Date: 4 September 2006 2:26:40PM GMT+02:00 > > To: <enum-wg(a)ripe.net> > > Cc: <ncc-services-wg(a)ripe.net> > > Subject: [enum-wg] New Documents available: RIPE-384, RIPE-385 > > Message-Id: <B33086268D53A0429A3AA2774C83892CDC5850(a)KAEVS1.SIDN.local> > > > > Guys, > > > > I have some sentimental issues with the new ENUM request forms as I > > found out when I had to use them last week. > > > > The new ENUM registrations ask to register an Organisation holding the > > registration. > > > > This "Organisation" template, has a "org-type:" field. > > RIPE tells me to fill in "NON-REGISTRY" in this field. > > > > I'm aware that we are not an RIR, LIR or NIR as in the RIR world, > > but I > > do feel the term "NON-REGISTRY" a bit degrading as we are the registry > > for .nl and soon hopefully for ENUM. > > > > Can we invent a new term to use for official ENUM tier-1 registries > > here > > ? > > > > Antoin Verschuren > > > > Technical Advisor > > Policy & Business Development > > SIDN > > Utrechtseweg 310 > > PO Box 5022 > > 6802 EA Arnhem > > The Netherlands > > > > T +31 26 3525510 > > F +31 26 3525505 > > M +31 6 23368970 > > E antoin.verschuren(a)sidn.nl > > W http://www.sidn.nl/

[enum-wg] New Documents available: RIPE-384, RIPE-385

Guys, I have some sentimental issues with the new ENUM request forms as I found out when I had to use them last week. The new ENUM registrations ask to register an Organisation holding the registration. This "Organisation" template, has a "org-type:" field. RIPE tells me to fill in "NON-REGISTRY" in this field. I'm aware that we are not an RIR, LIR or NIR as in the RIR world, but I do feel the term "NON-REGISTRY" a bit degrading as we are the registry for .nl and soon hopefully for ENUM. Can we invent a new term to use for official ENUM tier-1 registries here ?

re: Proposal for returning IRT objects
by Denis Walker 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

[Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC has re-implemented the way IRT objects are returned in RIPE Database query results. The proposal can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/db-wg/2006/msg00087.html The first stage of this implementation as described in the proposal is now complete. The main objectives were to: - Increase the availability of the IRT information to users - Promote the use of the IRT object - Make it easier for third party tool writers to find the correct contacts New Behaviour ------------------------ The behaviour of the "-c" flag and the "-rc" flag is as follows: A standard query for address space including the "-c" query flag returns the queried INETNUM and related objects. This also includes an IRT object referenced by the queried INETNUM object or the closest, less specific INETNUM object, if one exists. It will also still include any ROUTE objects. By using the "-rc" flags, the related personal objects are filtered out. The IRT object will still be returned together with any ROUTE objects. An additional consequence of this change is the way the "-b" flag works. The "-b" flag will always return the primary key of any address space object queried. It also returns the "abuse-mailbox:" attributes from the address space object and any related IRT objects. The RIPE Database Query webpage has also been updated: http://www.ripe.net/fcgi-bin/whois For all address space queries made via this webpage, the "-c" flag will be added, making it the default. This only occurs if no other address space query flags (lLmMxbc) are present. A link has also been added to enable users to switch between the test and production databases. This makes it easier to query the RIPE Test Database. Regards Denis Walker Software Engineering Department RIPE NCC
