IP Address question... - GoFuckYourself.com

NickPapageorgio · 07-20-2005, 03:20 PM

Is there a way to find out if your IP address has been blocked from a site or server? Or is it impossible to tell that you've been blocked without actually seeing the site in questions admin?

Most webservers have an option to drop packets from a specified IP. No way to know that happened from the client side.

I've had this problem before.. I went on google and found a few free proxies, and tried to access the site via those proxies, i got in fine, but with no proxy, i got no access = banned

I'm running 4 boxes as part of Tor.. brilliant concept

If they have Flapjacks 2.3 installed, you can see it in the HTTP header.

Hey Nick... long time no talk... ya still busting out killer designs?

High Plains Drifter · 07-20-2005, 03:36 PM

Lemme restate that... if you use ipchains or iptables to filter packets at the tcp/ip level, there is absolutely NO way to know that is happening from client side.

I'm going to ask a really stupid question:
Is there a way to run say 5 instances of a program on the same PC , but to use another/program/something/whatever that will make the sites (or server) that hese 5 instances are trying to connect to see them as coming from five different computers (read 5 different IPs)?

Do I even make sense?

Yes, of course

www.findnot.com

Use the SSH tunnels to connect to 5 different servers at the same time (the site says you can't, but you can connect to all if you want to) all on different local ports.. then configure 5 Firefox instances to use each of the different SOCKS ports you got opened.

You can also do it with regular proxies

azguy · 07-20-2005, 04:17 PM

Or, run TOR (http://tor.eff.org/) on 5 different local ports and configure your programs (browser?) to use each port. You will appear as coming from 5 different servers all at once

that might do the trick, do you know how many different servers I can connect to at the same time max? the 5 I posted was just an example? Probably it's written somwhere ther but I,m still reading their page.....

Thanks, it looks good

thanks , do they slow down your connection significantly?

In theory - unlimited

It does slow you down, and it depends on the specific hosts your requests go through, but overall it's good.

Tor also encrypts your entire session, so that's also slowing you down a bit

Also take a look at http://www.sockschain.com/socks/

Same deal, set different ports, etc.

Make sure you use for privoxy with it. Tor documentation explains why and how.
