I'm experiencing strange delays in responses to my mail to RIPE robots (auto-dbm at ripe.net as well as hostmaster at ripe.net) up to one hour instead of usual just couple of seconds. It was started from today morning and continues up to now. And it is not mine mail queue - as I can see in my mail logs, letters is accepted by RIPE mail server immediately after I send it. This is not affecting RIPE mail lists, btw. What it is and when it will be fixed?

In addition all CRYPT-PW auth: lines have been removed from existing MAINTAINER objects. All users affected by this change have been notified by separate e-mail sent to each MAINTAINER object contact e-mail address. If your MAINTAINER object used the CRYPT-PW authentication only, it has been locked by replacing the passwords with a randomly generated MD5-PW password. If your maintainer object used an authentication method other than CRYPT-PW, only the CRYPT-PW auth: lines have been removed. It is still possible to query all of your objects. We have provided a web form for you to enter your MAINTAINER name and the old CRYPT-PW cleartext password. This will unlock your MAINTAINER object by replacing the randomly generated password with an MD5-PW encrypted version of your original cleartext password. If your MAINTAINER object previously used CRYPT-PW with other forms of authentication, you can still use this script to add a new MD5-PW to replace the deleted CRYPT-PW. In either case, you will continue to have access to your MAINTAINER object with the same cleartext password. The form is available at: http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/crypt2md5.cgi More information on the project is available at: http://ripe.net/db/support/security/crypt-pw_deprecation/ Regards, Agoston Horvath Database Group RIPE NCC From ncc at ripe.net Mon Feb 12 16:38:13 2007 From: ncc at ripe.net (Andrei Robachevsky) Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2007 16:38:13 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] [ncc-announce] Transfer of ERX resources from RIPE NCC to AfriNIC Message-ID: <45D089E5.50601@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate e-mails] Dear colleagues, On Wednesday 14 February 2007, the RIPE NCC will transfer management of several Early Registration PI address blocks and Autonomous System Numbers to AfriNIC.
