hmm. i love www.sorbs.net dns BL. he says we can help by running a server to help catch more rubbish and report it.
out of interest, does anybody do that here? -----Original Message----- From: Chris Santerre [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 18, 2003 6:50 AM To: 'Gary Funck'; Spamassassin List Subject: RE: [SAtalk] bigevil 2.04 posted Actually my email gateway is behind a firewall :) I do some really crazy stuff because I'm a paranoid security nut. Never on the same machine. 1 machine for 1 job. No other processes, no remote access, local only. I don't firewall a lot. You have to really bother me to get placed in the list. This domain was brand new (Dec 6th) and blatant spam, I just decided to deny all http + mail traffic from there. More people doing that might discourage spammers, might not. Sort of a HTTP proxy blacklist. (It would be nice if I ever get off my butt and finished my squid proxy project. The server has been running unused, in my office, 5 feet from me for about a year!) Cisco router wouldn't handle 1000's. At least not the 26XXs I have here. But I doubt I have more then 50 ips listed. IPtables is better then ipchains. Stateful inspection and such. So If your going to learn one, learn iptables. Deny all, allow only what you want.
