IP Banned by BNCS 0x0c?

[rabbit]

Every time I send 0x0c I get IP banned, on every realm (which sucks).  I haven't checked the actual clients yet because I was stupid and IP banned myself from every server trying to make 0x0c not hate me.  Is it just me?

I get on fine, post a packet log.

You're probably sending the packet wrong. Remember that the Flags and Channel fields must both be filled out at all times. When using "First Join" (0x01), the Channel Field is the client name (DRTL/DSHR/STAR/SSHR/JSTR/SEXP/W2BN/WAR3/W3XP), though you can set it to anything, as long as it's not nothing.

I was stupid

I'll post a log as soon as I can get on on some server.

I've been writing bots since before you were born (well, not really).  The code worked, I changed nothing, a few minutes later I got IP banned.  Besides, I always use force join.

Socks Proxy, mayhap?

[rabbit]

I don't build proxy support into my bots for a reason, especially my bots which can load multiple simultaneous connections.

[Barabajagal]

That's why there's programs that create proxy abilities. Linky

Hrm... I have no idea how to screw up on the 0x0C. It's just the dword, of either 0 1 or 2, (I think anything higher would result in a firstjoin) and the channel name (a null terminated string). You really, should post a packetlog. That would help much. By the way, IPBans for invalid packets only last for 10-15 minutes at the most. However, I'm always wrong and I'm pretty stupid too so don't listen to me.

[rabbit]

Yeah, I already know all of this.  I should have mentioned that I wanted input from people who know MORE than I do.  Thanks.

[brew]

there really is no way to get ipbanned from an 0x0c unless you're sending it wrong. in this case, if you know more then I do, then why don't you do the sensible logical thing of packetlogging! your ipban should be up by now. packetlogs reveal all. -.-

Now IP bans are intermittent, it's quite annoying.

Anyway, I told you my bot was made properly.

[brew]

I tried sending the 0x0C with the same exact parameters you do; No ipban at all. And that other packetlog below your bot, what's with the extra data? Did you just not filter out the header in that one? Possibly two packets clumped together? And what server have you been testing this on? It doesn't seem to effect 213.248.106.200:6112.

[rabbit]

The bottom bit is an Ethereal dump.  There's BNCS 0x0b and 0x0c in there, as well as the TCP headers.  Packet 0x0c starts at 003e, and is *identical* to the one I send from my bot.

[Hdx]

The 2nd packet he posted was a log of SC from wireshark.
It had the TCP/IP header still attached. and it has 0x0b in it as well.
FoFo, Mind posting a full log of you bot.
From connection to 0x0c
I've had some experiences where BNet would ban me for ommiting 0x0b.

I omit 0x0B all the time. Literally NOTHING ever happened to me. rabbit, what server are you trying to send the 0x0C on? maybe blizzard might be doing something...
