Dear Unreal Team support

i saw in some networks strange akill or ban

its a ban from the network on ur harddesk not ip

so even u chabged the ip u cant join the only way to join is formatting the pc

i would like to ask is there any module or command to do that ?

the other network using Anope-1.8.7 (3089) Unreal3.2.9. FhinXOoEm3 [*=2310]

Thanks[/b]

Unreal does not ship with that capability so it must be a custom module. The only other address that I can think of that would be unique enough and available to the public would be a hardware MAC address, which collecting is well outside the scope of IRC it's self, not to mention Unreal. the only other explanation is it's really a CIDR ban on you.

Thanks katsklaw for the reply

can u explain me how to use CIDR ban?

and how to know the mac address for the user through the irc

Thanks

A users' MAC address can't be seen on the internet. MAC (Ethernet) takes place on layer 2, and all IP routing is on layer 3. So as soon as it traverses the first router, the information on the source mac address is lost. Read about OSI layers if you want to know more.

They probably want to make you believe it's something great, unchangeable, a perfect ban.

In all cases I've ever seen banning is no magic. It is some distinct property on which you are banned, which can be: nick name, username / ident, host / IP (range), real name, channel(s) you join, CTCP version reply, ..

welcome Syzop

trust me i tried to change ident nick ip real name .. new script after all that i cant join the server

when i try to connect i will see this msg Unable to connect to server (Connection refused)

after the format i can join

Connection refused means that nothing is listening on that IP and port. It has nothing to do with bans at all.

Indeed. Or a firewall, but at least something that happens *before* UnrealIRCd even sees the connection.

*grin*.. if I were to format my pc every time I got a connection refused somewhere..

that ban or whatever he did makes me crazy to know how he did it

anyway thanks for the reply

Unreal is the best (y)
