http://netscan.org has the first (relatively) complete database of ICMP directed broadcast networks ("smurf amplifiers"). All allocated IP addresses ending in .0 or .255 have been pinged and measured, so it's complete short of pinging the whole 'Net. It's queryable by IP address/subnet/broadcast (same output) and a list of the worst 1024 networks, rescanned this morning, is available. We're hoping netscan.org will get enough publicity that admins will be pressured - both by user comments and bandwidth limitations - to fix their router configurations. Cheers, Troy Davis
