In Linux I can set tcp_syncookies which gives me too things, 1) basic syn flood protection, and 2) a message in the syslog telling me about possible syn flooding. How do I do this with FreeBSD 4.2-Release? Thanks in advance, -Max To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
