Hi to all,
I don't know if anyone might be interested in this (Reliant Unix is a sort
of archaeological OS) but sending an icmp port unreachable error to a RU
cause an immediate drop of all the connections in progress between the
server and the icmp-sender host, of course spoofing the icmp address
originator cause the drop of connections between an arbitrary host.
Bye
