AS I discovered today that my box was brought down by a heavy syncflood attack, connecting to multiple ports. In addition to that, the attacker even attack the ftpd with spoofed IPs, opening tons of connection. In result I've limited the total connection allowed at anyone time but I couldnt figure out how to stop syncflood.
