Unfortuantely, the Internet is not so simple anymore and many non-Asian companies that use Asian-based ISPs have had IPs from this 202.0.0.0 network allocated to them. For example, suse.com is entirely on the 202 network and it's happened a couple of times that an ISP blocked the whole class A to cut down on spam and blocked us as well.
Oooof - that's gotta hurt. <g>
I've black-holed networks at my border routers before, but usually for stuff like FTP scanning and such, and only one class C at a time, as a rule.
/etc/mail/access.db is one of my favorites, as it can be as broad or selective as I want, and I don't have to bug my router guy for it.
It is, however, disheartening how few supposedly "responsible" parties just don't care and won't take action. I recently had one one idiot question "who I was and where I got that information" after I sent them a chunk of my mail logs that showed a machine in their network block hitting me with null connects on port 25, every two seconds for 24 hours straight.
Setting up "550 service refused" on that single IP and CC'ing their upstream provider finally got them clued. ;>
My problem with this guy is that he just does not listens. He's a stamp collector (I'm a dealer) and I get from him 2 to 3 emails a day wanting to trade. I've wrote back nicely "no thanks", still got his emails. Then I pissed off and cussed at him. No go there either. So I was hopeing to find out his ISP's name and talk to them. How do I find the email for whoever is in change of the ISP? There's a command but I don't remember it.
