    So it seems like someone wrote a script for synchronet bbses so they
    can have a bot apply and login on the web interface and then post in the msg subs.

    is it possible to add some type of challenge to trip them up?

    Yup, spammers have been doing that for years.

    Sure. The first question is: which web interface is/was being used?

    The BBS the referenced spam came from, Boondock's El Gato de Fuego BBS (elgato.synchronetbbs.org), doesn't appear to be running any Synchronet web server on TCP ports 80 or 443 and his listing in the Synchronet BBS list doesn't specify any web server address/port, so who knows?

    I just disabled posting access from that QWKnet node and netmailed the sysop to fix his board before I'll restore posting privileges.

    well i havent seen them really create an account on the web and then post. did they do that with runmaster's web?

    Sure. The first question is: which web interface is/was being used?


    i think it's the ecweb.

    The BBS the referenced spam came from, Boondock's El Gato de Fuego BBS (elgato.synchronetbbs.org), doesn't appear to be running any Synchronet web server on TCP ports 80 or 443 and his listing in the Synchronet BBS list doesn't specify any web server address/port, so who knows?

    i talked to marisa today and they pulled the bbs down until they can talk to the person.

    so i went on thewayback machine and it appears his web is on http://elgato.synchronetbbs.org:2000 ( it is down now, as i said)

    so this is the runemaster web, right

    I think you might be right. As you well know, we had a similar experience here. I don't know how they got in, but for safety sake we shut down the registrations on the web. If a new user wants to register now, they will have to go through the bbs window, and register on the bbs itself.

    well i guess it's both of them.

    i think there's a guy who knows that we run servers that can be compromised that way and he's making scripts and putting them in some kiddy script pack or something like that.

    the best way is to just disable the new user signups via the web.
    or put in some type of challenge.

    Its not often that I use the "delete message" button when reading messages - but when there is obvious spam I do.

    Not sure if you are aware, but if you press delete, and you are not on the last message (in a sub), then after confirming the delete, you automatically advance to the next message (in a sub).

    However, if you press delete on the last message (of a sub), after you confirm the delete, you are presented with the same message. It's triped me up a few times - where pressing "delete" again actually undeletes it (without a confirmation - but that is OK).

    Can you change it so that pressing delete on the last message (in a sub) acts like "next" after deleting it, and takes you out of the message area (or to the next area when you are reading new messages).

    If you set SCFG->Message Options->Users Can View Deleted Messages to "No", then it'll behave as you described. You won't have the option to undelete messages using the built-in message reader, but perhaps that's what you want.

    Guests come in at level 50, not sure why I have it set that high but
    there you go. To be able to post to any group you need at least 60. I
    only advance the level once the user has sent the sysop a message and I
    can be pretty certain they're for real.
    Guests can post in the local areas so at least they have something to
    do and any spam can be easily mitigated and the account deleted and ip
    blocked.

    2. Either don't allow new-user registrations via HTTP or give new users a network-posting restriction
    --

    I've set new users to 10 and access to all msg groups to >= 51

    Hopefully, that will prevent future problems.

    Hm... I'm not sure how well that'll work. Do you expect new users to actually be able to *use* the BBS with no access to any message groups?

    Restricting *posting* privileges to networked-groups only is all that was needed and you can do that with a simple restriction flag:

    really, i'm still not a fan of these web interfaces. they're slow. you can make them look however you want but they're slow. when i had my msg areas on vbulletin that was a lot better. it was fast and feature rich and usable. i had a script that would poll the msg bases via nntp and import.

    vBulletin is just another web interface though, isn't it?

    Also, I remember some sysops running vBulletin who had a spam problem due to users (or bots) posting on the vBulletin interface. Same issue as with ecwebv4 or the Runemaster web interface for Synchronet.

    I had some similar issues on Valhalla, with some of the kids registering and posting spam to the messgae base. MRO cought that and alerted me. I still didn't want to punish the 90% to 95% good users that register for a few childish brats. I also looked back in my user base, and found that same person registered with many different names. I solved this issue with 2 steps, and was able to leave the system wide open to honest users.

    1 - I stopped the registration process from my web sight, and now you can only regester by using the ftelnet window or by telnetting in to the actual bbs site.

    2 - Implemented a email verification system. I figured if you were able to supply a valid email, you would behave yourself and be welcome.

    So far, it's done the trick.
