Getting banned

Netfilter hooks are very useful when you wish to intercept, and modify IP packets inside a kernel module.

One great thing about using Netfilter hooks over say dev_add_pack() is that the bad L2 frames, and bad IP packets get filtered out earlier in the network stack so you only deal with good packets.

Now the whole point of the Netfilter hook is to customize what the kernel does with the packets received by the system so here is an example hook function. It simply...

Charles Chaplin's "The Great Dictator"

Once more it's a beautifully placed sudo wall.

If you never watched this movie, I strongly suggest you to see it. Especially for the speech in the final part. As well as I suggest you to see other movies by Charles Chaplin. They are all full of such a simple thing we are losing now. A thing that can be a way to new, better life on Earth.

Troubleshoot DHCP

Posted 04-22-2010 at 01:35 PM by Mr. ameya sathe (Tantra Yantra Swatantrya)

Although your DHCP Server has been configured to assign a new IP address to a network machine;your DHCP client will retain its old IP address.
In such a case; clean out the Leases file on the DHCP Server and the DHCP Client side.

On Server side;

Code:

echo "" > /var/lib/dhcpd-*/dhcpd.leases

On Client side;

Code:

echo "" > /var/lib/dhclient/dhcp.eth0.leases
