Recently I sent a couple of messages about a network configuration problem to a user on the Dutch hamnet, and later he claimed he never got them. But my own outgoing mailserver has the logs of the delivery to the hotmail MX and accepted status. Rob

Ok no problem, I make the small changes required to ignore case and that TTL value when comparing the zone file to what comes out of my hosts->zone converter. Rob

There is a change in the content of the downloadable zone file ampr.org.gz This causes problems in my scripts. I can modify the scripts, but first let's see if you can make them like before so similar issues for others could be avoided... Rob

missing encap.txt
by Michael Fox - N6MEF 14 Jun '17

The encap.txt file is missing from the portal. The last "encap.txt-<date>" is encap.txt-20170714073337 Starting after that, there are some "new_encap_<date>" files. But no "encap.txt". Michael N6MEF

I don't think I added that, and pe5hwg is not a valid callsign. The IP address is in the Netherlands, though. Maybe you can still trace who submitted that? Rob

All hosts in the 44.137.0.0/16 network are validated against the license authorities' callsign list on a weekly basis and expired licenses are deleted. Entries have been re-confirmed in 2014 and 2016 by sending a mailing and news bulletin and keeping only those entries for which a mail reply was received or that were otherwise confirmed as still active. About 1/3 of the hosts were deleted in 2016. Please don't delete further hosts from 44.137.0.0/16 (hostnames p[a-i][0-9][a-z]* ) Rob
