Well, it was worth a try. Although I'd think that at least in the case
of low level trouble makers and script kiddies some combination of
blocking IP, MAC, and ID0 should be enough to keep them out. Besides,
if anything its really just another tool at our disposal to make it at
least a little bit more difficult for them to get in. :)

the viewer could send a false uuid in place of the hard drive uuid

I believe the viewer also adds in a third safe guard in
combination with IP / MAC address. Long ago while tinkering
around with the viewer logins I remember seeing mentions of an ID0
floating around thats sent to the login service as part of the
login data packet. If I understood correctly, this is supposedly
the UUID of the user's first hard drive - which in fact cannot be
changed without physically replacing the drive itself (see
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Current_login_protocols).

Yeah, I think like websites the only thing you can ultimately
do is ban by IP for a period. Otherwise, they could always
just create a new account, change their MAC address, etc. Of
course, they can change their IP too but this is the most hassle.

Other than banning by IP or MAC address, I don't know.

I see there has been a post about this issue before.
My post here is two fold.. One is to apologize to the grids
that have been victim to this and to request that
other grids do not restrict hypergrid access from my
grid.. Also
to start a discussion about steps to prevent this in
the future.. I have been notified yesterday and this morning
I have a griefer registering on the Virtual Realms
Grid then going to other grids to grieve them.. I have take
steps to ensure this does not happen anymore.. I have
restricted new user creations to administrative approval till
we have sort out a good practical preventive measure
on this type of abuse. And would like to extend an apology to
any grid that have been a victim to this by any of the
grids users.. I will be looking at ways to prevent this from
happening in the future.. To this end any suggestions
to help grids prevent this from happening would be welcomed..
Thank you,
Todd Davis
Grid Administrator
Virtual Realms Grid..
