morgsboi Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 This website tried downloading a virus so i decided to ping it and shut off the server using CMD. I used "ping (website)" to get the statistics and ip address and the i used the "ping (ip address) -t -l 1000" command and the packets went over to the server and i left it for a few hours and the website didn't even lag. And I don't think its the website itself because I've tried it on a few different websites but nothing big like google or youtube. So whats going wrong?? Thankyou
insane_alien Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 well, the thing going wrong is that you are using ping flooding which pretty damn silly and usually ineffectual and probably comes under some computer misuse or other. there are numerous ways to defend against ping flooding, the most common method is to simply ignore the ping packets (especially if they are from outside the local network. but then again, 1000 packets isn't so much. anything other than dial-up would be able to absorb the load with relative ease. infact as it is a server it probably means it hasa far better internet connection than you do which means you'll never be able to DOS attack it like that. stop being a script kiddy. nobody likes them. 1
