Hi everybody,

As I learned, the "increasing the size of the connection queue (SYN-ACK 
queue)" and also "decreasing the time-out waiting for 3-way handshaking" are 
necessary for a host to decrease the probabilty of DoS (Denial of Service) 
attack. Could anyone tell me how I can manipulate these two options in 
FreeBSD?

thanks in advance,
Nazila
