Hi Oberoners, normally this would have been a private mail to Chris but alas ... there is a problem. So the payload needs a short prelude. If seems that my ISP (A big German one, hosting millions of domains) is blacklisted with dnsbl.sorbs.net because on 2.1.2004 there was 1 spam detected originating from them (IP 81.169.145.166). So I can't reach Chris by mail. I immediately sent a mail to my IPS. As I get a about 50 to 100 spams a day I sympathize with what SORBS is doing. If you have a look at http://www.edgarschwarz.de/spam you will find some files containing thousands of spam mail headers I collected the last months. I planned to create my private hall of fame of spamming mailserver IPs like SORBS and publish it there. But experiencing SORBS I have to reconsider my plans. OTOH I have a problem how SORBS is working. If I'm wrong in some facts please correct me. But that's the situation AFAIK. - We have Saturday now and I don't suppose somebody at my provider will read my mail before Monday. So the question is how long it takes until my ISP will react. In the meantime there will be perhaps trouble for thousands of customers which are innocent. This depends how many ISPs use SORBS. - I would like to get information on at least the complete header information of the last (In my case single) spam which caused the listing as a spammer. This also could give the ISP the information to look into the criminal act. - So perhaps you should differ between small and big ISPs. An ISP like mine who hosts millions of domains can't guarantee that once in a while one of it's customers is sending spam I guess. You are potentially hurting millions for punishing one. This is out of proportion IMHO. It begins with me wasting a lot of time having a look at dnsbl.sorbs.net and writing this mail :-( So that was the prelude. Now comes the payload. Hi Chris, at first I want to wish you a happy new year ! easlab@absamail.co.za wrote:

... ==> 'got' only part of no.AosDNS.Mod Correct. There is sometimes a problem with reading from the connection. I already saw it on the client side with Bluebottle. Will have a look also on NO. I suspect it being in connection Receive or Available. Unfortunately a problem which seems to depend on timing (E.g. processor speed, connection speed)
{HTTP Client : GET http://webdav.ethz.ch/nodav/src/no.AosDNS.Mod} {Connection.Receive: size, min, read, res 4096 1 1 0} {Connection.Receive: size, min, read, res 4096 1 237 0} {HTTP Client : HTTP/1.1 200} {HTTP Client : resHeader.contentlength = 671} vor LOOP{Connection.Receive: size, min, read, res 4096 0 0 0} {HTTP Client : reader avail = 0} {Connection.Receive: size, min, read, res 4096 0 343 0} {HTTP Client : reader avail = 343} Here seems to be the problem. It tells that data is available but it seems not to be read corectly. {HTTP Client : Timeout: waited for 10000 ms}
Thanks for your logs ! I will check it the next days. Regards, Edgar -- edgar@edgarschwarz.de "http://www.edgarschwarz.de" "http://www.edgar-schwarz.de/forum/oberon" Running Active Oberon Make it as simple as possible, but not simpler. Albert Einstein
