FLANKERATOR Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) Is there anyway we can ban all proxy connections? after Googling that : http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/04/20/how-to-block-proxy-servers-via-htaccess/ A better way to block proxy servers Rather than attempt to block proxy servers by who they are (i.e., via their specified domain identity), it is far more expedient and effective to block proxy servers by what they do. By simply blacklisting the various HTTP protocols employed by proxy servers, it is possible to block virtually all proxy connections. Here is the code that I use for stopping 99% of the proxies that attempt to access certain sites: # block proxy servers from site access # http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/04/20/how-to-block-proxy-servers-via-htaccess/ RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:VIA} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:FORWARDED} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:USERAGENT_VIA} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:X_FORWARDED_FOR} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:PROXY_CONNECTION} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:XPROXY_CONNECTION} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:HTTP_PC_REMOTE_ADDR} !^$ [OR] RewriteCond %{HTTP:HTTP_CLIENT_IP} !^$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F]To use this code, copy & paste into your site’s root htaccess file. Upload to your server, and test it’s effectiveness via the proxy service(s) of your choice. It may not be perfect, but compared to blacklisting a million proxy domains, it’s lightweight, concise, and very effective ;) Edited February 1, 2012 by FLANKERATOR Situational Awareness: https://sa-sim.com/ | The Air Combat Dojo: https://discord.gg/Rz77eFj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vault Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 He doesn't read anything manually he doesn't need to. In FC2 all the values in memory aren't encrypted so all he has to do is find where the user id is held in memory and edit the data in the packet before it's sent to the presentation layer. Because FC2's packets are encrypted you can't filter them either. Unless you really know what your doing you're not going to stop it.

Serg23 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Sure you can use proxy servers and all that, but if you can get someone to repeatedly attack you, can you eventually figure out where they are? Be sure, if you'll have all masks and adress, he will be identyfyed... After that he will need to change living place, or smth else?

Kuky Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 You guys want ED to do something about it and soon and by "soon" I don't mean standard "2 weeks"? I suggest EVERYONE simply stops hosting and playing FC2 MP... when ED sees no one plays their sim any more they should wake up... I hope... I've stopped flying FC2 for few months already and don't have any more interest in its bugs and now this hack attacks just put a knife deeper. I think it's time ED starts listening to their fans and not wait for who knows how long to release FC3 in order to address this... this really needs a hotfix / patch and I mean ASAP. If they know how they can stop this then they better get off their ass and do the right thing with their supporters and fans... waiting months doesn't do them or us any good... just my 2c 1 No longer active in DCS...

X-man Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Viper, could you be more specific? The only thing we've heard from ED is that FC2/BS1 will NOT get a hotfix/patch.

Have a bit of patience ;) With all do respect, let me add a few points: 1. this hack (at least the one with AI-respawning) is known for much longer than two weeks. How long exactly I do not know, but even if it were only two weeks, it is quite long time. 2. we are loyal long-time customers (I do believe at least most of us) who can not use product we payed for. We have full right to be impatient. 3. *If* this forum is not way of official support as you say, then I'm still waiting for ED's official statement concerning this problem. I checked DCS website, but did not find anything. Seems to me like playing dead fish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124SqZeljava Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 And what about if the problem is in us, or those who run servers and kicking for nothing or some small mistake, maybe some server was pissed of a wrong dude and he now hiting back and we know that payback is bitch. I am not saying this is okay what he/they are doing but i think those admins needs to think about it when FC 3 bean relesed so this kinda stuff want happen again. The wars in history was started cos of stupid reason, maybe this is one the same, just think about it for the future, i got nothing against the server rules, but maybe some of them are not playble. I was last night play with "set up on server like arcade game," and it was fun lol, maybe that is the reason, sending us a message how it should be? Or does it?. If you ask me i don`t like this realistic set up, maybe hacker don`t like it either, but he was trying to say that and nobody was listen, maybe game need to be set up in the way that it looks like a game and not real hunter jet plane. That`s just a thought, cos god knows i am trying to understand his/their needs, Cheers, S!:huh: P.S.Or maybe someone is trying to kill this sim to live another sim, why guy doing this, what he is doing???

124SqZeljava Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 @Boberro Mate, don`t call anbody mentally ill, maybe that kind of comunications came to this situation, like i said, maybe is problem in us like Boberro called him mentaly ill person, and what he will feel now, i was talking about that problems, if you don`t understand that, then i don`t know who is here retarded which is also not nice to call someone. If this guy has some mentally issue, he definitly is not mentally ill, that`s for sure. I would say he is close to Genius, he is doing this for month or two and you can do sht about it, i really wouldn`t call him with that names, i would nicely ask him to stop doing this and tell us what is wrong with the game and what he thinks about it? Does he thinks itneed to be something changed, and this is for me better comunication with him, cos maybe he got some nice ideas, i mean look what is he doing to the whole comunity. And for those who lough to my posts, they are reason why this comunity is spending days like this day in last few months.

That is not going to motivate ED to do anything .... Now if a lot of people started asking for refunds that might move things in the right direction ..... If banks can’t refund the most basic arrangements then they suck at their products and their bonuses. I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.
