Since some of you are attempting to do some kind of 'stuff' to
deal with "traffic issues", I would be very interested in hearing
from you what exactly these "issues" are and what exactly you
mean/need regarding this.

Certainly, there must be a "right" way of dealing with whatever it is.

Thanks

Jim

just real quick, since I'm at a Real Job and haven't access to a system yet to test, fixing is an exercise left to reader...:). IOW, it is probably full of bugs....

where 'other' is the blacklist list
'main' is the nodelist file:
 
#! /bin/bash
awk 'FNR==NR { a [$1]; next } !($1 in a)' other main > temp
mv main old
mv temp main

Interesting idea.

 

I’ve done a bit of AWK’ing in the past to parse out stats from the log of who connected when and how many times, but I’ve slept since then and will have to learn it all over again J

 

I guess that this will need to run regularly (cron?) in order to prevent a newly downloaded node list from unblocking the user.

 

I’ll look further at that. Thanks

write an awk (or PERL or ?) script to grok through the nodelist that gets downloaded on a regular basis and remove the node in question.  

 

that will, in essence, prevent the node from being listed as a valid node and prevent connection.

 

I assume you are talking about allstar nodes vs individual users via the web transceiver...

Hi Group,

 

I’m convinced I’ve seen talk of this before, but having trawled the archives, I’m darned if I can find it.

 

Is there a method of blocking specific AllStar nodes from connecting? I know we’re all friends here and wouldn’t dream of being unpleasant to each other, but there are occasions when it may be necessary to temporarily stop another node from linking. How would this be achieved?

 

Thanks

 

David
