Your ideas are great but they will just slow the dos down if even that. I guess no one has either thought of a true way to stop a DOS or maybe its really impossible because your allowing them in to begin with. I figured it was worth a shot to ask. Ill just wait it out for now. Eventually they will go away. They can try to take us out the game but unixhideout isnt going anywhere. So they just better get used to being second place. -- Mike mike@unixhideout.com The unixhideout network, http://www.unixhideout.com need to get ahold of me? finger mike@unixhideout.com ----------------------------------------- Free, secure and stable email from UnixHideout "The UnixHideout network" http://www.unixhideout.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
