http://1089059683 = Google ??

neoform · November 2, 2006

How is it possible that http://1089059683 takes me to Google.com ? there's no TLD!

ober · November 2, 2006

Is it possible that 1089059683 is the IP without the periods?

3.5k · November 2, 2006

Yes it's odd. I'm able to ping it from the command line too, so it's not passing through google. Only thing I can think of: it's registered with the root name servers (like the TLD's).

It resolves to this IP: 64.233.187.99

Which is indeed a google IP:

just out of curiosity, how did you come about this? entering in a random number and poof, it just so happened to be google?

neoform · November 2, 2006

I was just sitting in my parents basement typing http://1 .. http://2 .. http://3 ... http://4 .. until i got to http://1089059683 and poof, there was google! go figure.

ober · November 2, 2006

.... that's a very odd thing to be doing.... and how long did that take you?

redbullmarky · November 2, 2006

i can't remember the details, but i remember seeing somewhere that typing a 'long' IP in the address bar will resolve just like a domain name/IP would.

if you do this:
[code]
<?php
echo long2ip(1089059683);
?>
[/code]

you get: 64.233.187.99, which also takes you straight to Google.

neoform · November 2, 2006

I just figured it out.

window's TCP/IP stack does a special conversion on integers.. that's actually Google's IP address 64.233.160.0 converted to an INT(10)

Here's the PHP code for encoding/decoding an IP address so you can test it yourself.. you can access any website that way..

PHPfreaks.com = http://1113697029 (doesn't work though, apache no likey that url, heh)

[code] function ip_encode($ip)
{
if ($ip == '')
return 0;
else
{
$ips = split ("\.", $ip);
return ($ips[3] + $ips[2] * 256 + $ips[1] * 256 * 256 + $ips[0] * 256 * 256 * 256);
}
}
function ip_decode($int)
{
if ($int == '')
return 0;
else
{
$w = (int)(($int / 16777216) - 256 * floor(($int / 16777216) / 256));
$x = (int)(($int / 65536) - 256 * floor(($int / 65536) / 256));
$y = (int)(($int / 256) - 256 * floor(($int / 256) / 256));
$z = (int)(($int) - 256 * floor(($int) / 256));
return ($w.'.'.$x.'.'.$y.'.'.$z);
}
}[/code]

http://0x4261ab05/ - oooooh magic :P

More magic:
http://0x40E9A763 = http://1089054563 = http://64.233.167.99 = http://google.com

The magic formula:
[img]http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/4563/testoa7.png[/img]
o[sub]n[/sub] is an octet

Example IP: 64.233.167.99
o[sub]1[/sub] = 64
o[sub]2[/sub] = 233
o[sub]3[/sub] = 167
o[sub]4[/sub] = 99

Formula:
[img]http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/3415/test2tv1.png[/img]
And surprisingly enough that gives 1089054563.

This is just an IP in DWORD format (a dotless IP).
-----------------------------------

[code]<a href='http://phpfreaks.com@0xd8a38903'>PHP Freaks</a>[/code]
[url=http://phpfreaks.com@0xd8a38903]PHP Freaks[/url] (click at your own risk)

An unaware user could click the link and get to another site than they thought (URL obfuscation). It could be improved with a little JavaScript:
[code]<a href='http://phpfreaks.com@0xd8a38903' onmouseover="window.status='http://phpfreaks.com'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''">PHP Freaks</a>[/code]

Beware where you click (if your browser doesn't warn you about that there is a username in the url).

Well, it's not Windows, it appears to be IE. None of the above examples will work in FF for me.

Not true, it should.

Also try "ping 0x40E9A763" from the command line.

The're all just numbers mathematical (hexademal, octal) equal to an IP. Don't ask me for an in depth explanation though, I suck at math. Ask Daniel, he seems to be a mathhead.

It might [b]should[/b], but the fact is, it [b]doesn't[/b]. I've tried multiple times, and I'm getting the good ol' "Unable to connect" error:

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 0x4261ab05.

I've tried it with every link provided in this thread, too.

Convert it to hexadecimal

Edit: It is neither IE or Windows that does it. It works for me on Linux with Firefox:

It works for me in FF on windows. Hence the reply.

Don't you just love wikipedia? :-*

Explains it all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4#Addressing

@obsidian: did you try pinging from cmd?
@neoform: thanks for bringing alternate IP notations to our attention, although I can not really appreciate the manner in which you did it. No hard feelings though. :)

Stop crying you baby. I'll still take you to the park sometimes, so you can feed the little duckies. ::)

lol... no, I think I was just being a bit blunt with my remarks yesterday. I was quite busy with work, and I was hitting the forums in between very hectic phone calls. Sorry for any abruptness my replies may have come across with.

Yes, I did. It looks like it has to do with our proxy somehow. I ran into a problem with it not recognizing a telnet connection yesterday, too. I'll try this again from home to see if I can figure out exactly where the difficulty lies. Very interesting, though.

neoform · November 3, 2006

yehaw. set up apache to capture it's ip as a hex value..

http://0x52a5b562

hehe, sucks though, apache doesn't like the integer thing.. dunno why.

SharkBait · November 13, 2006

I use this to figure out where in the world people are by their IP address.

The formula that Daniel0 is the one I believe I use along witht he IP2Country Database :)

It allows me to show differenet product depending on where in the world you are from. It's not 100% but its good enough for my purposes.
