Hi Everybody I red ipfw documents and I saw that "TCP_DROP_SYNFIN is not recommended for web server" no any explanation about it ?! Do you have any idea for why ?! ICMP_BANDLIM in documents ; "Enable icmp error response bandwith limiting . This will protect from D.O.S. packets attacks" --> Does it means all type of ICMP attacks ?! or another thing if I drope all icmp traffic Do I need to use it ?! Vahric
