Kelvin,

Did you turn on the following parameters in /etc/rc.conf or
/etc/defaults/rc.conf?

# For the following two options, you need to have TCP_DROP_SYNFIN and
# TCP_RESTRICT_RST set in your kernel. Please refer to LINT for details.
tcp_drop_synfin="YES"           # Set to YES to drop TCP packets with
SYN+FIN
                                              # NOTE: this violates the TCP
specification
tcp_restrict_rst="YES"           # Set to YES to restrict emission of RST

Check on a website http://www.freebsd-howto.com for further details .

Regards,
Ling Ling
