Hi.
I got contacted by an old teacher today that works at a public shool here in
Sweden. They have a ever groving problem with the students playing Counter
Strike on the schools computers. Not only dose this pose a problem with
bandwidth usage, but the fact that the Half-Life installations often are not
licensed, and this puts the school in a tight position. Apperently the
schools IT department say that thay can't do anything to stop it from there
point of view.
He asked me if I chould come up with a solution. So here is my idea:
I'm not that familiar with Couter Strike, but I belive that it's a client
server setup. Would it be possible to some how make a application that
listens after CS Servers and block/jam there traffic? I want to disturb the
CS traffic but not everything else?
I'm quite an experiensed programer, but in this case I have no clue where to
start. All help is apprciated.
