2600 IRC SERVER OFFLINE INDEFINITELY
Posted 18 Jun 2002 07:13:36 UTC
As a result of a massive Denial of Service attack of
biblical proportions, we no longer have a home for
irc.2600.net.
Hmm, I wonder if a content hoster might take this up
for the sole purpose of evening a traffic ratio to be in-line
with certain peering policies.
Assuming the DoS was of the usual send overwhelming amounts of traffic
at the victim variety.
what kind of traffic did it generate during the DOS?

An IRC channel where the point is to get attacked... interesting.
"Guys, you're gonna have to get DOS'ed again before next Tuesday,
or we're charging you full-price this month."
