Issue with the local blacklist

Hi guys,

I might have an issue with the local blacklist since the last release.

I recorded 50.116.2.0/24 into my local blacklist few days ago since the 50.116.2.70 IP address was considered as a wrong connection.

Tonight my log is stil saying that this IP tryes to connect despate the local blacklist.

I am may be wrong in my understanding so I am joining snapshots about this.

Usually a blacklisted IP does not appear anymore in my log.

73 to all of you.

  • sorry for my english "despite" instead of "despate" and "still" instead of "stil"

  • 50.116.2.70 is the kiwisdr.com server, which can't be blacklisted.

  • OK

    Sorry for my lack of knowledge about it.

    But in this case why my system denies this connection ? (see my log)

  • I'm not sure...

    What's your setting in "Number of simultaneous channels available for connection by non-Kiwi apps" on the "Control" page?

  • 4 all of them in fact

    Hi all,

    Yes the TDOA_service is legitimate, it is the task that collect the samples when you use the TDOA extension (what a surprise ! ;-) ) to locate a station. When it goes well it stays 30s (or the other choices in the extension) as can be seen below in my /var/log/messages file.

    The non-Kiwi app filter has been set by John a while ago to get rid of "ip trolls", but it's amazing that kiwisdr.com is considered as some of them ! May be a side effect of adding its IP to the blacklist ?

    I checked that your antenna switch is disabled so it's not linked...

  • There is a setting on the admin / extensions / TDoA tab to prevent your Kiwi from accepting TDoA connections if that's what you want.
