Please help us keep Internet safer and cleaner by leaving a descriptive comment about 77.40.118.38 IP address
DNSBL* - is a list of IP addresses published through the Internet Domain Name Service (DNS) either as a zone file that can be used by DNS server software, or as a live DNS zone that can be queried in real-time. DNSBLs are most often used to publish the addresses of computers or networks linked to spamming; most mail server software can be configured to reject or flag messages which have been sent from a site listed on one or more such lists.
WHOIS** - is a query/response protocol that is widely used for querying databases in order to determine the registrant or assignee of Internet resources, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system number. WHOIS lookups were traditionally performed with a command line interface application, and network administrators predominantly still use this method, but many simplified web-based tools exist. WHOIS services are typically communicated using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Servers listen to requests on the well-known port number 43.
** Approximate Geographic Location - This is NOT the exact geographical location of the person/organization with the given IP address. However, this should still give you a good idea about the area/region where this person/orgranization is located.
Complaint by Garry Dufresne :
I’m a sysadmin in my forties and tonite I checked the log and some random host keeps spamming my server with failed login tries. Its like they think root is a free donut stand or sumthin. Cant tell if its some bored kid or a bot gone stupid. Anyhow ive slapped a block rule on that sucker cause im not in the mood for games. If u see that behavior anywhere else you might wanna tighten up your firewall too.
