Hi all,

I was going through a few servers tonight and came across this in /var/log/messages. This particular server functions mainly as our primary webserver. Its running FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE. I decided to take a closer look to see what was generating these entries by loading up trafshow. I noticed quite a bit of icmp requests coming in. I created an access-list on the cisco and filtered icmp to this host and the messages kept logging. It's obvious I didn't see any icmp anymore on the server but is this system under a heavy load? I dont see the load being that high according to top. Any suggestions?

Jun 21 21:50:55 mx1 /kernel: Limiting closed port RST response from 230 to 200 packets per second Jun 21 21:51:23 mx1 /kernel: Limiting closed port RST response from 222 to 200 packets per second Jun 21 21:53:02 mx1 /kernel: Limiting closed port RST response from 230 to 200 packets per second

TIA,

Troy
