Hey Alpix,

 

thanks for the quick reply. I was able to quickly reach the responsible admin using the address you provided, although his replies came from noc@as250.net His feedback to this issue: the EICAR string is transmitted on purpose, there are no plans to change this. I will check internally how we can handle this issue (either adjust detection or switch to another mirror).

 

Thanks & best Regards,

   Tobias

Hello Tobias,

 

as far as I know the mail of the responsible admin should be cdnops at as250.net!

 

That was the mail used to register the mirror back in 2014 and it was given as contact mail.

Hello everybody,

 

we currently have the following issue: one of the mirrors which is behind  http://centos.mirrors.as250.net has the hostname set to the EICAR AntiVirus test string, and now every connection from our network to these mirrors triggers alerts.

 

Is there any way to identify the person(s) rsponsible for the operation of the mirror and ask them if they could change this?

 

Best Regards,

   Tobias
