Requests the direct IP address of the user with the specified nickname. This command is often used to obtain the IP of an abusive user to more effectively perform a ban. It is unclear what, if any, privileges are required to execute this command on a server. This command is not formally defined by an RFC, but is in use by some IRC daemons.
Unix-like operating systems commonly implement IP address blocking using a TCP wrapper, configured by host access control files /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow.. Both companies and schools offering remote user access use Linux programs such as DenyHosts or Fail2ban for protection from unauthorized access while allowing permitted remote access.
The command only works for the server which has the proper O-line in its IRCd configuration file. The IP address that the user is operating from may also have to match a predefined one, as an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized users operating if they have cracked the operator's password.
Fail2ban is similar to DenyHosts [...] but unlike DenyHosts which focuses on SSH, fail2ban can be configured to monitor any service that writes login attempts to a log file, and instead of using /etc/hosts.deny only to block IP addresses/hosts, fail2ban can use Netfilter/iptables and TCP Wrappers /etc/hosts.deny.
However, IP addresses should almost never be indefinitely blocked. Many IP addresses are dynamically assigned and change frequently from one person to the next, and even static IP addresses are periodically reassigned or have different users. In cases of long-term vandalism from an IP address, consider blocks over a period of months or years ...
The oldest anarchy server in Minecraft; there is no officially set list of rules, allowing the use of cheats and obscene language ingame. Its map is one of the longest-running server maps in the game. It has since updated to Minecraft version 1.20 after previously running on Minecraft version 1.12 for many years.

On the Internet, a block or ban is a technical measure intended to restrict access to information or resources. Blocking and its inverse, unblocking, may be implemented by the owners of computers using software. [1] Blocking may also refer to denying access to a web server based on the IP address of the client machine. [2]
First logo used from 2010 to 2017. The 2b2t Minecraft server was founded in December 2010; it has run consistently without a reset since then. [6] [1] The founders are anonymous, [7] choosing to remain unknown or known only via usernames; the most prominent founder is commonly referred to as "Hausemaster".
