Interesting... my "attacks" seem to come from botnets... I'm surprised that this is a deterrent, unless you mostly see single-host attacks... Funny nonetheless...

I'm sure most of them would not even know what a stack pointer is... The stack is a magic object that keeps information around in your Java virtual machine... Johnny

SIMH + Multiple interfaces + DECnet

I just disagreed with the comment that VMS nodes don't understand bridging. They don't DO it, but they understand it... This changes with Phase V, since that doesn't change the MAC address (if it doesn't have to be Phase IV compatible, that is). Also, unlike Phase IV, Phase V supports end nodes with more than one interface. Right. Phase V is a different story again. And I assume you mean endnodes with more than one active interface, as phase IV endnodes can also have more than one interface, but only one can be active. Johnny Yes, that's what I meant. paul

OpenVPN just became touchy and disallowed the MAC address change in my case.

Also, unlike Phase IV, Phase V supports end nodes with more than one interface. Can you have different addresses per interface in Phase V? paul -- Cory Smelosky http://gewt.net/ Personal stuff! http://gimme-sympathy.org/ My permanently-a-work-in-progress pet project.

Node renamings

by ppuskari＠yahoo.com

Sampsa, the bridge is now quiet on my site as well. It was like you said just spitting out hash entries left and right. Now it's quiet and just sitting at: Found match: sampsacom == sampsacom Host table: 0: local 0.0.0.0:0 (Rx: 0 Tx: 0 (Drop rx: 0)) Active: 1 Throttle: 0(000) 1: sampsacom XX.XX.XX.XX:4711 (Rx: 0 Tx: 0 (Drop rx: 0)) Active: 1 Throttle: 0(000) Hash of known destinations: I think all is well. I'll need to get the apps on here next right?

That is, I'd say, just an expected effect of having many machines and routers on the bridge... Any time a packet comes in, this message is output. And every router is regularly broadcasting packets. Add more routers, and you'll get more packets.

INFO.TXT, was Re: [HECnet] UPDATE: HECNET.HLP file for VMS systems

So what's supposed to be in this INFO.TXT file that everyone's been talking about lately? I think I may be too much of a newcomer here to know about it. Where should it be, and what should it contain? Actually, thanks for reminding me. This is something someone should write up a page about. I'll happily put a link to that on the hecnet webpage... (Or host it, if needed.) Johnny
