Same thing here. I got in briefly a few hours ago, but back to the error.

I am sorry, but this is not being performed by a Kali system. It might have originated from one as a controllerā¦ but this is a botnet attack likely of Windows/Android/Mac/IoC devices. Also, all of the tools on Kali are also readily available on any distribution.

Absolutely those tools are available on other distributions. Iām just suggesting it may not have originated from windows-based machines. It could easily originate from a host of devices. Would never implement Kali as the one and only distro to use if you want to perform black hat operations. Also, could use any version of Linux including your own homebrew as a controller. So notā¦sureā¦whyā¦we needed to clear up Kaliā¦

Can an admin please address this issue? At least a comment saying they are doing something about this =(

from the previous post, it comes across as if you/others are saying there a bunch of kali ābotsā causing the attack instead of wording it in a way saying launched from a linux based os
Complete systemic purge of Lutris and all Libs did not solve the problem post re-install.
Manjaro 4.19 w/AUR packages.

Canāt confirm a solution, but my attempted reinstall did through an error this time. My āesyncā wasnāt setā¦ What this means is beyond my own knowledge. However, the error had a simple guide and easy guide to setting it. From what I gleamed from this guide it appears that the esync limits the number of files your computer can have open at any given time. My defaulted to 4096ā¦ the guide suggested two hundred thousand and something (it said that was the new standard default for systemd, or something to that effect)ā¦ if you donāt hear back from me soon, you can assume that following this guide bricked my system, lol.

Worked until today. Now I canāt connect to any server after logging in with no issues. āNetstatā run while trying to connect to the realm shows āsyn_sentā, and it gets left hangingā¦Firewall behavior.
I would find it to be a real shame if Blizzard decides they donāt want our moneyā¦

Sorry for confusion everyone, I was just mentioning in previous post that the software available to stress test servers is included in Kali linux among others and would not be surprised if it originated from a linux-based system. For those that were confused please refer to my previous statement.
Also, Malrun thank you for update on purging and reinstall - thatās helpful to know saves me from doing it. Also, Shift, I hope your system isnāt bricked bud

esync should be local only and not effect your online gameplay that much if at all in this case as its more directed at the CPU. Esync itself is enabled natively for WoW in Lutris. If you are using this you can test by simply entering the config and clicking the slider under runner options. It should be noted that esync itself is about removing the Wine overheads rather than about your network connections.

I ran a Wireshark on the clientā¦ to destination/from destination server (IP redacted)
So the basic stream hereā¦long log simplified.
TCP IP connect > SYN/ACK starts Key exchange > Main Logon server accepts > TLS1.2 stream open to game serverā¦ > String of 10-15 ACK requests (connection) and TLS Client Hello Strings (attempting connection) > Re-attempts MANY timesā¦ Fail
No SYN packets from Game server AT ALLā¦ Iām not a master network tech, I held a CCNA a long time ago, but in my analysis of the data I have (multiple run attempts) that this is classic black hole. Just drop the connection with no connection attempts made from the server.
We are being blackholed. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news (run wireshark to see).

You are correct. This is my analysis as well. I believe we are being packet dropped as of this time.

Thanks for the information. Thatās exactly what I thought was happening. As it stands I donāt think thereās any solution unless they add a whitelist.

Ubuntu 18.04 - Lutris/Wine

Windows PC on the same network working fine.
Unfortunately, I now lost all of my addons and settings doing it. Guess its time to update them anyways if the game will come back for us! To quote a wise individual in this thread before thoughā¦ āNo Tux, No Buxā

I was able to log in earlier todayā¦once around 4PM MDT IIRC. I thought that the DDoS was a bigger problem as have yet to been able to login since that one time. I donāt know if this is the same issue or not?
I should have stayed in Zuldazar as everything was just fine there - was able to do a quest, move inventory aroundā¦ until I tried to boat to Boralus (instance not found) and tried to fly to Nazmir where I got disconnected and can no longer log back in.

Never ran Wireshark to scan Lutris, thank you for the idea. Has been a long time since Iāve played around with it. Iām getting the same string of 6 ACK requests that try to connect and fail - repeatedly and then it disconnects with the error. Not a network guru or hacker but can confirm what you are seeing on my end with Pop!_OS and Lutris

Currently copying the files to my Windows work laptop, will try once itās done and report my findings.
Welp, no luck with my reinstall. Iām still stuck at the same spot everyone else is. That said, setting my esync hasnāt bricked my pcā¦ yet, anyways. So thatās a plus. Imma try digging through some config/log files to see if there is anything that could possible be changed. Still got a couple hours before beddy boo time and no westfall knolls to slaughter.
