[App_rpt-users] allstar control

Wed Oct 16 21:40:49 UTC 2013

Ive been called an idiot on occasion for different reasons, so we need to examine the word idiot. 
There are idiots that block nodes and nodes that block idiots.  If you must know, the extensions .conf
is one way to block nodes.  do it under [check_route], or remove the node number from the rc.updatenodelist. 
Another other way is the iptables, just block the IP address.  Check with the guys out here on win. They are the best
blockers on the planet. 
I know one other way that can stop unauthorized / malicious access causing interference,  turn off the computer.
Sounds like a smart remark, but a sysop should have that ability do just that; remote or local.

Indeed - it is about keeping idiots out of the system - there are those out
there who are only too keen to point fingers at / complain to other node
owners who have absolutely no way of stopping unauthorised / malicious
access causing interference. That said, some, on other systems,will block a
node immediately without thinking about the issue.
Having to go cap in hand to another node owner for reinstatement is not the
spirit or something anyonne here should need to be reduced to....education
is...or making the effort to eliminate the problem(s).

I have no control over the guy next door ---do you?

I think the point is a little finer grained control than that...:)

Crawling back into my lair now...:)
