Pretty sure Tinet dumped Avante/ChrisK because of this.

What is the back story? What was Robert hosting on their network that was targeted?

What he was hosting probably wasn't even the issue.  Kid probably either ran his mouth, or tried to run a 0day on someone again, and got smacked for it.

They had a pretty good blend of bandwidth before they switched to GTT/Tinet single homed.

From IRC last night, all his IPs were getting attacked.

Robert Clarke needs some parents that take the internet away and instead send him outside to dig ditches and befriend the squirrels.

With Avante being single homed to Tinet that means Avante should be offline now.

Clarke's servers seem offline.

mtr output showing some high latency to their neighborhood.  Still getting attacked I'd say.

Why can't the internet bullies stick to swat teaming him :) ?



Crashing the 'net all over the place with these attacks. Kudos to whoever is swinging such a big botnet.   Impressive.

Avante/Centarra is actually not single homed as of a day or so, most of what hit him was taken up with Atrato -- Tinet only saw very little of it.

That BGP graph of HE's is VERY slow updating.

Well, I could of saw this coming. One search of his network showed he's running OpenSSH 5.3 which is vulnerable to a 0day.
You go on and see the Apache, it was also vulnerable.

He pissed of some pretty powerful people.

I really wonder how much money robbie is spending on BW. Word on the street is that he managed to get a plenty of overage on cnservers.

Don't doubt it. What I'm trying figure out if you're who I think you are, or just some other kid.
