Has anyone seen the latest 2600? I've heard that there was a program in
there to do SYN floods. People are using this against IRC servers right
now (servers running on all UN*X platforms). Is there any kind of
kernel-level solution for this?
(If someone has the program, I'd appreciate a copy. My server's being SYN
flooded right now, and I'd like to understand what's going on better.)
