Hello fellow wizards, Here's the picture. I am a client of Adelphia PowerLink CableTV. They use DHCP for giving IP addresses. In the last weeks a bogus DHCP server showed up into the network giving addresses in 192.168.244.128/25. The guy is using aliasing on his Ethernet interface, he has an address aquired from the ISP in the ISP's range and he configured his interface with 192.168.244.129 too. I have his MAC. He gives DNS services. The system the hacker uses is totally protected, no ports are "visible" to allow to try to do something to his system (can syn flood be a solution?). Some time ago the hacker provided forwarding also but now he's not forwarding anymore anoying lots of people in the net as they don't have access to the INTERNET. I believe it is a UNIX box, most likely LINUX with NAT. Now here comes the question: is anything there we can do to block this guy ? Any answer will be greately appreciated. I will sumarize also for archiving purposes. TIA & best regards, Tudor ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1
