Brian's responsibility and activity is way beyond reproach.<br>
Yet consider that others within our hobby (like yourself) can
usefully carry part of the ball when their effort fits into puzzle.<br>

Most likely the best thing under the circumstances.<br>
But consider what the perp was (!maybe!) after with the activity --
a map of 44... network?<br>
<br>
Only if I'm correct about his motivation, and using my own
experience with jnoswiki, there seems to be no comprehensive way to
describe 44... worldwide to someone who is not already a ...NOS
node. There are in fact sub-pools of information like MI-DRG, but
beyond the detail of encap.txt there is little available to describe
"who" is likely to respond and what "path" might support my link.
IMHO theDUDE type software [if properly configured] might just
produce a reasonable piece of information -- if the result were
published maybe it could even motivate improved interconnectivity
and more network use beyond the overhead of theDUDE. In my neck of
the world disuse is the 44... networks principal enemy, and yet I
live in a subnet where Jay publishes an active node display of sorts
-- thus you are welcome to disagree.<br>
<br>
Yes I'm aware of how transient the map would be. I'm also aware how
tempting it is to abandon ham radio in favor of strictly Internet
paths. For the ham packet radio part of our hobby, I do view a
network map as a useful but missing display. <br>
<br>
IMHO-2 the original question by Russ never produced the suggestion
that by using JNOS ACCESS that the perp could be screened out of a
local node. Access doesn't work like iptables in preventing receipt
of a packet, but it does prohibit processing of a targeted packet.
Yes I could have responded myself...:-( While such a response does
little for 44... network, it does directly answer the original
query.<br>
