    From Nodelist Police Commissioner@2:280/464 to All on Fri Sep 3 15:07:04 2021

    Hi All,

    Net 5064 with 3 nodes was removed. 2 Of them were in the Z2PNT list with a couple of dozens of points...

    New Host for net 105: Host,105,Awesome_Net,Portland_Or,Rick_Smith,-Unpublished-,300,CM,IBN:hub.awesomenet.us:24556
    Timeout on trying to connect. Which is the same for the regular node of Rick Smith with a different host name (and IPv4 address).


    Regards, NPC

    I did see him write a message in some area in the last 24 hours. So not so much a ghost host, as a misconfigured one...

    I just tried it again on is host and node system, but still get a timeout. Maybe he has a rather strict firewall on his system? But I still would call that a misconfiguration, if not every node in fidonet can deliver crash mail to his system...

    He seems to be blocking the Netherlands. I tried it from 3 different ip's/locations.

    That is indeed what it looks like. I tried connecting via another Dutch IP too and got a time out as well.

    I find it odd. I can imagine somewone wanting to block a specific IP or even a range of IPs from a specific provider. But blocking an entire country? I wouldn't even know how to go about it...

    He seems to be blocking the Netherlands. I tried it from 3 different
    ip's/locations.

    There are country tables available for this. The commercial firewall appliance we use at work has a special configuration page for this. (This used to be an extra option you would have to buy if you wanted to use it, but it became free in the last version)

    Blocking China for instance would result in (a lot) smaller log files for your services. I see a lot of scan/hack attempts from Chinese IP addresses...

    I suspected something like that would exist, but as I never needed it, I never looked for it.

    Maintaining these tables must be a substantial amount of work. So it can not be free. If "they" offer it as "free", you pay for it it another way or someone else pays the bill.

    If you maintain it for a million customers and the updates are automatic, the cost for each customer is neglectable...

    Hi Nodelist!

    06 Sep 2021 09:16, from Nodelist Police Commissioner -> Angel Ripoll:

    That is how it should be. So he seems to be blocking just the
    Netherlands. Strange!

    Germany (where my Austrian node runs ;) is not blocked.

    It can not be 100% automatic. Providers come and go. There are always exceptions that at some point need human intervention. That real human will have to be paid. If that cost is spread out over millions of customers, the cost for each customer may indeed be so low that it is considered neglegible by the customer, but "something" will have to be done anyway or the real human doing the work that can not be automated will not be paid and the process will stop.

    So our suspicions are confirmed. It probably was easiest for him to block the complete Netherlands instead of just the offending ranges...
