My guess is that it's a md5 of the IP (with a salt) to hide what the actual IPs on their internal network is. But since they know the salt and the ip ranges they can find out what the IP is.
- exikyut 9y agoAfter posting that I figured that's what was going on, yeah. That seems kind of scary though - I can easily brut--stops mid-sentence brb, finding out how fast my old i3 really is Edit: I drowned in the differences between md5 implementations. And all the "superfast" code I've found produces different results than stock /usr/bin/md5sum. So now I want to find an actually-fast and working md5sum implementation, and figure out why I'm getting different results. Yak shaving && stackdepth++ HN will likely lock this thread before I get to completing the above which is kinda sad, but email still works, I guess.
