Assuming that this was I troll, I took this to private mail. Since there is some relevance to computer security and anonymity I am forwarding it back to the list. Here is my reply to him:
Anyone got a good IP spoofer that can spoof the whole domain? The only shit I can find is those shitty ones that spoof the first part of the IDENTD which is possible to do in mIRC if you use it. Oh yeah, it has to be for Win95. Yes I know that no one likes win95 but I dont have a choice....I'll tell about that later.
You're kidding, right?
Either that or you need to find out who is forging mail from you. :)
Why would i be kidding...what forging mail....
Well, you posted to a mailling list about cryptography and asked a silly question about IP spoofing. Smells like a troll. Apparently others thought so too; I guess I was the only one silly enough to respond. "...what forged mail..." Well, your whole post was about forging the sender... Now, to answer your question: In order to do a successful IP spoofing, you must either gain access to the routing mechanism for one or more non-local IP addresses, or spoof a DNS (Domain Name System) server. To send packets with a forged IP address generally requires substantial ability to modify the behavior of the local TCP stack. Since Win95 does not provide such functionality via the winsock.dll interface, and the source code to the tcpip module is not available, in order to use Win95 for such purposes would necessitate rewriting and replacing a substantial portion of the IP-networking code. Since you expressed no interest in doing so, I assumed you were joking when you said that you wanted to use Win95. On operating systems which provide an interface for the user to insert raw packets into the local tcp/ip stack, ip spoofing is much more practical. Please see the post I made to the list about a month ago on the subject of IP Tunneling. I included two scripts, written under the Linux Operating System, which serve to give you a non-local IP address (using ssh as the tunneling transport mechanism). I assume that this would be sufficient for the purpose you intend. You will, however, need to find a cooperative network administrator from whom to borrow an IP address. The other option is DNS spoofing. The simplest form of this is to only forge the reverse-dns lookup. This requires access to the reverse-dns server, or merely suffient information about it to forge packets from it. (eg information obtained using a packet sniffer on the local ethernet) This method is fairly widely known and practiced. For this reason, most servers now check the reverse-dns against a forward-lookup, so you are unlikely to succeed at doing this. It might also be possible to engage in a denial-of-service attack (such as a packet flood) in order to prevent the reverse-dns lookup. This is, however, of limited utility since the IRC server, if it accepts a connection without a reverse-dns entry, would publicly display the numeric address, which anyone could then independently look up, or do a traceroute on. I hope this answers your questions about IP spoofing. In the future, please try to familiarize yourself with the ongoing list discussions, as this will encourage people to take your questions more seriously.
