MasCanc.NET is running a Debian system "Etch" on a Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2160 @ 1.80GHz with 80 Gigabyte of disk space and additional 500 Gigabyte of storage on SCSI disks. The DNS is maintaned by Network Solutions and the IP from Dyndns.org. The software used for mail processing is postfix / cyrus / spamassassin / razor / pyzor / dcc / clamav. The newsserver is a INN1 type that has fromhost signature as "dirac.mascanc.net". The hostname is dirac.mascanc.net. It is currently masquerading the whole LAN. There is a Kerberos realm (MASCANC.NET) running MIT kerberos. IMAP is authenticated using kerberos. There is a KX509 service for obtaining X.509 certificates based on the identity of the Kerberos TGS. Web authentication is also based on kerberos but is performed using the SAML SSO Web Profile using Shibboleth 2.0. Postfix has SMTP authentication using SASL. The certification authority is local. All the filesystem is distributed over the network using OpenAFS / Kerberos5. The web area is also on AFS, using IP-Based ACL. The newsserver is fed by using "suck". Fidonet is fed with binkd and we use ifmail as tosser / packer. Fidonet is maintained in the INN1 newsserver. The newsserver is authenticated.
