Block nicks

[Guest]

Hi there...

This one is a new type of flood i have seen

the person that connects hes bots to my server are:

aa_anyword_aa
bb_anyword_ww
ge_anyword_cc

where (anyword) changes every time his trying to flood like:

as_master_js
lp_champ_wk
cc_freak_aq

I tried to catch tham like ??\_\*\_?? but its not working properly

My question is, how can i block a nickname that starts with 2 letters than _ than a word _ again two letters

Thx in advens!!!

Code: Select all

[a-z]{2}_[a-z]+_[a-z]{2}

should work for you

| 20:49:17 | -irc.whatever.com- [Spamfilter] [email protected] matches filter '[a-z]{2}_[a-z]+_[a-z]{2}': [user: '[email protected]:op'] [ Possible Botnet - Not Allowed here! ]

It is catching also nicks that have only one _ or maybe it catched the identd Loti_I_Ve

Does some one know the code for spamfilter to gline only thos users with nicks like:

aa_whatever_aa, bb_whatever_cc, es_whatever_qa etc.

Thx in advance

Code: Select all

[a-z]{2}_[a-z]+_[a-z]{2}

People forget that regex will match anything that is not defined in the regex. You should use:

Code: Select all

^[a-z]{2}_[a-z]+_[a-z]{2}!

Notice I added an ^ at the beginning, and an ! at the end. These will make it only match the nick.

Thank you Stealth this one works fine
