Re: How to block a range of IP's?

2003-01-02 18:44:39
I'm trying to block a range of IP's but I don't have access to the root
routines of the server.  I'm getting pestered  by:
INTERWEB HOSTING INC CORETEL-INTERWEB-BLK1 (NET-209-163-100-0-1)
                                209.163.100.0 - 209.163.100.255
Core Communications, Inc. CORETEL-BLK01 (NET-209-163-96-0-1)
                                209.163.96.0 - 209.163.111.255

On 12/31/02 9:35 AM, "Mark  wrote:

This will match all class A addresses with a first octet value of 202 or 203

Adjust to your liking...


What is the difference between a class A and B or C. I was advise that I had
to hand list all addresses :
#        pattern action
#               When pattern matches a mail address, domain or host
#               address, perform the corresponding action.

which appears to me like I would have to put each class C (or each
class B) on a separate line:

209.163.96.0 - 209.163.111.255

209.163.96 553 Drop Dead Spammer Scum
209.163.97 553 Drop Dead Spammer Scum
.
.
209.163.111 553 Drop Dead Spammer Scum

Since Coretel has a well defined range:

INTERWEB HOSTING INC CORETEL-INTERWEB-BLK1 (NET-209-163-100-0-1)
                                209.163.100.0 - 209.163.100.255
Core Communications, Inc. CORETEL-BLK01 (NET-209-163-96-0-1)
                                209.163.96.0 - 209.163.111.255
 

I'd like to create this with the least amount of hand coding.  Your first
suggestion would seem to block too many.  How would you set a range block
for the 3rd set of numbers below?

 * ^Received: from.* 209\.163\.96-111\....
 
Is it possible?
