  • host.can question

    From Rixter@VERT/RICKSBBS to All on Sat Jun 28 18:13:51 2025
    I know there is a silent version of ip.can. I usually transfer my ip.can files over to the silent version after a time. I get tired of seeing my logged filled with client blocked entries. Is there a way I can try to make the host.can messages silent as well? I just really want to see the log with actual activity instead of the non stop list of client blocked messages. I do study the block for a while but eventually I just want them invisible. Thanks. I hope you are well and enjoying your day.

    No, because hostname look-ups can be slow and I wouldn't want unexplained (potentially) long delays without any log output explaining the reason why.
