Question: ping

[George Toft]

What you want to do is illegal and contrary to your terms of service 
with your ISP.  The downside to a ping flood is he can claim you were 
trying to DoS him, and he complains to your ISP and Michael finds a new ISP.

You should consider setting up iptables to block all traffic from his 
IP/subnet.  Maybe he'll go away.  How did he find you to begin with?


I knew someone who said he set up ICMP redirects to the NSA's web server 
for people like that.  All those packets getting redirected to the 
spooks!  LOL.  Whether or not he really did this is irrelevant - it's 
still funny to think about.
