They have existed in the past it was how many an irc server was hacked.. It's just not easy to accomplish but there are many hacker tools to do this still available, some with better capabilities at this then others. Also you could have 2 ip addresses on the same host different interfaces eg 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3, and use 10.0.0.2 and spoof 10.0.0.3 as the source, and since you can listen to both interfaces, you can determine if it arrived on the wrong interface. jason On 5 Aug 2003 at 21:31, Barney Wolff wrote: > > On Wed, Aug 06, 2003 at 12:58:19AM +0000, Paul Vixie wrote: > > > > could someone here who can write win32 apps, and someone else who can > > write cocoa apps, please volunteer short executables that will try to > > spoof a few packets through some well known server, and then report as > > to whether the current computer/firewall/cablemodem/isp/core permitted > > this or not? isc would be happy to host the server component of this, > > as long as source code for the executables is available under a bsd > > style copyright, and the executables are released without any fee. > > How would the spoofing program, or its user, be able to tell if > it was successful?
