Hmm, Luminous, Hasso Plattner and Accenture all seem to ring a bell.

Pity FNB is the only bank once again taking any kind of action.

Good read! FNB have launched their “Instant Accounting” running on top of a platform by http://www.luminousbanking.com

Does categorization and is obviously quite tightly integrated with their banking systems.

Might be worth a look for you.

Comment on The whole ZA-Portal Saga, and what it means for the ZA internet. by Kaishux

Just want to say that Zaine is a great guy and he was only giving people what they deserved instead of waiting for the big guys to lower their stupid prices which will never happen. It sucks that he got busted but he was doing something good and I just wish everyone would lay the hell off him he aint a normal hacker and he aint a script kiddie, he’s way too smart for that!!

Peace

Mod on Script:
1) Use Saix server
2) Display only destination subnet
3) Add standard prefix where required

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Net::Telnet;

$prompt=’/tpr-route-server>/’;

$server=”tpr-route-server.saix.net”;

$saix_cmd=”show ip bgp community 5713:56225\n”;

print “Connecting to $server\n”;
my $session = Net::Telnet->new(Host => $server,Prompt => $prompt,Timeout=>30);
unlink(“t.log”);
$session->dump_log(“t.log”);
$session->login(“saix”, “saix”);

#turn off paging
$session->cmd(“terminal length 0″);

#get list of local routes
print “Retrieving BGP routes\n”;
my @output = $session->cmd($saix_cmd);
foreach (@output) {
@fields = split(/\s+/);
$fields[1] =~ s/^i//;
@parts = split(/\./, $fields[1]);
if ($parts[3] =~ /\//) {
print $fields[1] . “\n”;
} elsif ($parts[0] < 128) {
print $fields[1] . "/8\n";
} elsif ($parts[0] < 192) {
print $fields[1] . "/16\n";
} elsif ($parts[0] close;

foo = “perl sucks”
foo = [ch for ch in "perl rocks"]

Wait, that doesn’t work. Sorry, Perl, you suck.

I can do that too, for any language you like. What does it prove?
