With all the attacks going on on yahoo, ebay, etrade, etc, it reminded of a question I had a while back but forgot to ask... What exactly does the "ICMP_BANDLIM" kernel option do to provide 'protection'? Not much in the LINT file on it, and I can't search, so I thought I'd ask :) Thanks in advance!!! --John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
