Yeah, we added him to our firewall(s), but the point I was making was that it would make a server less of a target if we could simply make them not appear in the server browser of designated IP's/Steam IDs at all (even though his IP is banned, our servers will still appear in the browser, making them a target even though he can no longer connect). After all - if a user can blacklist a server (which makes it not appear in the browser when they search), wouldn't it make sense to allow the server to blacklist a user?

Use iptables or a similar firewall to drop all traffic from his IP.

We now know the IP address of the person who is initiating the attacks (he has admitted as much). Unfortunately, he is using some kind of reflection attack that comes from hundreds of different IP addresses, so just blocking his IP won't do us much good. My question is - is there some way to prevent our server from even appearing in the server browser for his IP address? It sure would be wonderful for server operators to be able to blacklist certain IPs from even being able to see our servers in the server browser ;-) _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
