anyone around to cloak?

ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:14:17
Why is freenode issuing bans that are not bans?
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:14:55
probably for the same reason people ask questions which aren't actually questions
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:15:01
in every effort i make to connect via privatetunnel vpn, i get Disconnected: failed to connect to irc.freenode.net/149.56.134.238 (port 6697) after 10000ms: isConnected failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:15:18
replace the IP with the ones for each server of course but otherwise the same
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:15:35
not a ban, but an artificial thing clearly because it was not there a week ago
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:15:45
that's not freenode's doing
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:15:58
MetaNova: its not timed out for real
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:15:59
if freenode were blocking your VPN, you'd get "connection refused"
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:16:17
as it says 10000 ms but thats 10 sec, this happens instantly upon hitting connect button
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:16:24
and it does say refused
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:16:27
Disconnected: failed to connect to irc.freenode.net/149.56.134.238 (port 6697) after 10000ms: isConnected failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:16:33
right at the end there
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:17:03
usually if a vpn is blocked it shows as a K-Line saying you're connecting from a VPN exit
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:17:09
uh
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:17:09
no
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:17:48
ASCII-Art: you sound like you're confusing a VPN with Tor
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:17:57
MetaNova: yeah, and it usually says to have your VPN provider contact ilines@freenode.net if its a vpn, or email klines@freenode.net if it's not
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:18:02
no, not tor
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:18:31
can you connect to any other irc network?
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:18:41
let me check
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:18:42
BRB
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:18:54
inb4 "no nothing works now!"
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:20:33
MetaNova: i switched back to private tunnel briefly, verified I can connect to snoonet but still get that error for freenode only
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:21:29
is it possible that freenode is somehow blocking at a lower layer of the OSI model, such as layer 3 or 4, instead of using k-lines within the IRC protocol?
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:21:41
like, in order to ban an entire BGP ASN?
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:22:38
because other companies' vpn's work fine but none of the various discontiguous IP pools of any privatetunnel server work
amnet 2017-03-03 20:22:39
Connection refused is a TCP thing.
amnet 2017-03-03 20:22:45
Otherwise you'd just get a timeout.
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:23:08
amnet: yes and why is freenode refusing connections? its not a k-line but is it possible this is intentional?
AllYourBase 2017-03-03 20:23:13
Hello room
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:23:45
if it is, i don't want to be seen as evading, but if its not some sort of ban and is a genuine glitch i'd stay here to troubleshoot
ASCII-Art 2017-03-03 20:24:04
any staff care to comment on this?
jim 2017-03-03 20:25:54
when I receive a notice from nickserv saying someone failed to login to my acct, there's a couple of extra chars before the actual hostmask... what do they mean?
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:26:16
jim: which characters?
jim 2017-03-03 20:26:26
sec
jack_rip_vim 2017-03-03 20:26:55
jim, what happens?
MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:27:04
he just explained what happens

MetaNova 2017-03-03 20:27:33
jack_rip_vim: no.
jack_rip_vim 2017-03-03 20:28:09
so, someone tries to hack it?
jim 2017-03-03 20:29:11
I'm not sure someone's trying to hack me
jim 2017-03-03 20:29:24
in fact I pretty much doubt it
