Thread: Getting Even

    Since we've pretty much made this a pranks thread, one of my favorites was a buddy of mine had a school trip or something, where about 30 students were sleeping on the floor in sleeping bags. He put 3 or 4 alarm clocks in the ceiling tiles to go off at various times during the night.

    Years ago, there was this lady, she was one of the worst ppl I have ever met, she like these ppl "I say what I want to say." blah blah idiots.

    Back then, we had Windows 98. I had Linux installed, RedHat. The first thing I did was, in Win 98, you run MSCONFIG (I think), you could limit the allowed amount of memory that Windows could use. I limited it to some very low nr. So her PC got very slow.
    IT couldnt fix it.
    When she got really annoying, if you run the ping command as root, you can send packets to a PC as fast as your machine is able to, some preload or something command. Also make the packet sizes larger. Windows would slow down to a crawl, even BSOD at times.

    I did the same ping thing to another guy that played his crappy music out loud when the boss was out of the office. Damn that made me laugh. He would be playing his music, I'd start the ping, and his music would start to stutter very badly...

    I am not the malicious type, I dislike being nasty and rude to ppl, but some ppl go out of the way to be asses, thus the above.

    I have different ways to deal with difficult people on my network.

    on the switch they're connected to I set the port speed to 10Mbps and to half duplex, then rate limit them to 1Mbps, then change the MTU on their port to 68.

    It's not like they can't work, it just doesn't work fast at all. Like 56k modem fast.

    Yes, this will cause certain things (especially VPN connections) to just fail outright, most "normal" traffic will just be fragmented to hell and gone. 22 times more packets for anything to happen and because it's half duplex it will nicely slow things down even further. Oh, and if you want to be even more painful (and if you can enable it on the person's network connection) enable flow control (it's usually on by default anyways) and then just enable it on the switch end.
