Banning by IP range, problem

Kozzle · 10-20-2009, 02:20 PM

Ok so there's someone in my vent server whom I REALLY do not want in my server. I know how to IP ban by range, but the problem is if I IP ban 142.167.0.0 (this is usually his IP range) I will also end up banning 1-2 other members in my guild. Is it possible to ban this range of IP's (from the octets 142.167.x.y) and yet have the members I still want in my vent server be able to bypass this ban? In other words, if my friend has the 142.167 octets is it possible for them to get around this IP-range ban or not?

Thanks for the help!

exluding certain ip's from the ban is not possible. can you narrow down further the ip range that user is using?

The furthest I was able to narrow it to was either 142.167.0.0 and 142.162.0.0. but there is 1 other person who uses our vent who goes under 142.162.0.0 so I was to see if it's possible to find a way around this ban affecting him as well
