A call to (nerdy) arms

[MaximiusM]

So we are all aware of the present situation with 'DDoS' that is impacting the server and, it appears anyway, the larger EQEmu community. Is there anyone else with an IT background willing to volunteer to help?

I'm sure that Rogean and the staff would be open to assistance qualified help. I'm willing to help coordinate volunteers. Even if you're not interested in long term involvement in P99, surely there are a few of us with enough combined expertise to help mitigate this.

Example background (mine): 15 years in tech, last 9 working for fortune 100 tech company that rhymes with crisco, deep understanding of DNS, switched networks, virtualization.

Willing to make offers of service? PM me to keep Rogean's already plump inbox clear.

Sure, take out his IP's.

67.205.76.148

75.144.216.121

Well, 67.205.76.148 is definately the Sleeper it just took me to the website

The second IP was given to me by a source as well.

Have fun

Right, taking down Canadian and US ISPs vs helping Rogean mitigate DDoS at ingress... sounds reasonable.

Toops server is in Canada, not sure about the other one

IPs which we may not be sure are involved, a lot of DDOS uses unsuspecting participants usually don't they?

[MaximiusM]

Without being too much of a prick, you gave me two IPs. Are you familiar with the first D in ddos? If the packets aren't coming from compromised hosts they are being spoofed which means that I doubt that any IP information people have is accurate.

All those packets are going to be UDP so if this person(s) understand the weaknesses of STUN targeting individual IPs/Hosts is like pissing into your own mouth.

edit: Even a fucking retard can use pingback exploits on unpatched wordpress or drupal 6/7 hosts to ghetto flood a target host.

Well, we know it is Toop's doing as far as the terrorism that is happening. I am sure some people can take the information here and do something with it, I am sure a blood-for-blood is a last resort

Not sure how you can work at cisco and not understand wtf DDoS attacks are, unless you're the receptionist or something.
