A Disk Operating System Ping command can be used in .this fashion, but it is a Federal Offense, which is considered to be a DoS, or Denial Of Service attack. These pay hefty fines. Do not use the DOS ping command to do any of .this stuff. Case in Point.
I run voice servers, person comes onto voice server with his stereo mix crancked all the way up. Try to chat to him to lower his volume, wouldn't do it, so I .banned his IP. 15 minutes later he comes back on asking why he got .banned. I told him that he was rude, and that we don't want that kind of behaviour here. He then started playing his music full volume again. Ban IP, 15 minutes later back on, music loud, screaming all kinds of vulgarity. That broke the camels back.
I traced his IP, got his ISP, wrote an email to there abuse department and .banned his IP again. 10 minutes later, Representative from ISP comes on voice server. 5 minutes into conversation, here comes the idiot again. 2 seconds after the idiot logged on, he was booted off. I asked who booted him and the ISP person said, I did.
This is the way .this is going to work. He no longer has internet, I am sending the address a notice of why they no longer have service. I am also sending .this information to every internet provider in the area. He will not have internet for a long time. By FCC rules, .this is considered a Denial of Service attack.
Breaking FCC rules can result in major penalties. Did I place charges, no. Not having interent until they moved out of the area was fine for me.
