Hello, I was noticing that an nmap -O portscan of my FreeBSD machine (4.3 RC4) gives a tcp sequence prediction difficulty around 17K, but on my Linux machine it is anywhere from 130K to 5.4M. Is the difference between Linux and FreeBSD normal, or a cause for concern? If it is a concern, how would I strengthen the FreeBSD sequence randomness? Thanks very much, Seth Hieronymus _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
