Just a thought on the servers...

[iggy73]

Someone in a previous post found that MS basically had all the servers in teh range of: http://206.16.223.1 through 255. So I basically ran through all of 'em with a port scanner and found the following open. It might be a bit early to try and sniff through all the ports to see what's open or not (and that might be going a bit too far so early)... but thought some of you might appreciate the info just the same...

We already know about *.65 and *.63... maybe these new ones will play a part?

yeah good thinking, i saw a post before where the guy thaught that perhaps the servers are actual physical servers we have to unlock
i dont think hacking is the right thing to do though

but yeah keep an eye on those sites, might open up something

You didn't pick up 26 or 18? Granted, I don't know exactly what you did, so I'm not sure if you should have or not. They are Windows/Rare sites.

Also, http://206.16.223.61/ provides the exact same thing we saw just before http://206.16.223.65/ went active. I find it much more likely that the closer IPs are the Halo 3 servers. Not such distant ones as your image shows.

Sorry... I should have mentioned that the first pass I did on any devices in this range was a simple ping. It appears as though the other sites have disabled ping responses and appear as "dead". For ease of use, I removed them from the list.

I can run the gamut of port queries on every single address (65,000 ports times 256 devices) but this will take a bit...

Time is of no importance. i reckon we got at least 3 days til anything new happens

Agreed. Or at least when something was supposed to happen.

Here's a link to my port scanner util, then.

Have fun, and let us know what you find (I'm at work now and the IS weenies really frown on me scanning other networks! )

Alright am doing this I'll let you know what I find

Exactly. We probably have even longer than that (but lets not make any assumptions)

Thanks Magni!
