Hello: I have a user on my network with a Linux box that is performing a port scan on all the computers in my network manually. He's doing this 'because he can'. Although I've asked him not to, he continues to do so. 1) How can I block or inhibit port scans launched against my freeBSD servers from within my network? 2) How can I 'hide' my freeBSD servers from users on the network? (If they can't see them, then they don't know to scan them.) Thanks in advance.
