Never touble trouble 'till trouble troubles you.

  • It's been a while, but I've been managing to get myself into quite a bit of mischief. About a week ago, while attempting to enable proxy-arp on my firewall/gateway system, I managed to ARP poison most of the machines on my ISP attached segment. Needless to say, I was unplugged for a few hours. :) But, after much futzing around, I managed to get it working. Now, all of my Internet accessible boxes are routed through my firewall/gateway system allowing me to do centralized firewall rule management, traffic shaping, QoS, and bandwidth monitoring. Details to follow.
  • Rogers sucks. They require any SMTP server connecting and issuing a MAIL FROM: <@rogers.com> or From: <@rogers.com> DATA segment to use SMTP AUTH, or they bounce the message complaining about misconfigured email settings. This affects both mailing list users, and those people who use email forwarders, as provided by iname.com. They can't fix it because their servers are outsourced to Compaq/Openwave, and they're "at their mercy". Riiiight.
  • Had a great weekend in Toronto this past weekend, got lots done, saw lots of family, and aside from hosting a colony of bacteria in my throat, it was a good time!
