From hex code to IP [modified]
-
I'm trying to decode the following address (came from an IRC server)into a regular IP. I can't compile/run "identd.pl" which requires a linux server/box to run, (identd.pl is the script normally used to do this, as explained in the quote below) Address: d14813f.1da97c9.dsl.bell.ca Is this normal hex? Is it possible to decode without actually having the linux script do it for me? It's important and regarding some trouble/threat makers on an IRC server. We would like to find out the real IP of the person. (Here is some info on how the proccess is normally done.. on a linux box, which I don't have access to) "identd.pl The identd lets a user be idented to a hex encoded version of their IP address eg: c0a80202@your.host (this decodes to 192.168.2.2), you can use the included decode.pl to decode an IP address (or work out the hex yourself :). It makes banning on the host possible at channel and server level, which makes it much easier to allow more unrestricted access to CGI:IRC. To set-up the identd.pl you need root access to the system where you have installed CGI:IRC. The identd.pl requires you to be using an inetd, i have used it with inetd but people report it works with xinetd too." -- modified at 17:58 Friday 2nd March, 2007

Im not sure about this but if it is normal hex d1 = 209 48 = 72 13 = 19 f = 15 1d = 29 a9 = 169 7c = 124 9 = 9 so would 209.72.19.15.29.169.124.9.dsl.bell.ca mean anything? appears to be 2 ip addresses together ahead of the dsl.bell.ca?:confused:

I looks like a random account set up, typical spammer trick. As someone else said, contact Bell Canada. Elaine :rose:

That seems to be the DNS hostname for a certain IP-address. The address might be encoded in there (as mentioned in another reply, there might be 2 addresses in there. one could be the client, the other one could be the gateway, but no guarantee to that). However, you should be able to get the IP-Address by doing a DNS Lookup on that hostname. If you don't know how to do that manually, ping the hostname (enter "ping d14813f.1da97c9.dsl.bell.ca" on a command line to do that). The result should similar to this:
Ping d14813f.1da97c9.dsl.bell.ca [10.11.12.13] mit 32 Bytes Daten:The address you are looking for would then be displayed inside the square brackets. Note: The address I listed there is completely made up. Even if the computer does not reply to pings, the DNS lookup should still succeed and yield the IP-address. A word of caution: If the provider of that dynamic IP-address randomly distributes the hostnames and manages its own DNS-records, the IP-Address belonging to that hostname might change, yielding misleading results.Cheers, Sebastian -- Contra vim mortem non est medicamen in hortem.
