Hello all,

One of our sites was a target for a DoS attempt tonight. The attempt
failed.

I have ipfw running on the server, and managed to block the IP's in
question in time. My question is: suppose I was not near the PC at the
time of the incident, how can I configure ipfw to automatically block
cnnections originating from any IP and that is continuous in a suspecious
manner? (let's say 50 concurrent connections to port 80 every second.)

Is this possible in FreeBSD or/and in ipfw? Would like to know how...

Thanks in advance.

Noor
