You don't want to drop it more than necessary, because otherwise minor problems will start causing connection establishment to fail. If you're having a real problem with packet-spoofing attacks, then I'd recommend keeping an eye on how low the kernel drops the rtexpire value, and reduce the default value to just a bit more than that. If you're not having problems with such attacks, then there's no real benefit to making these changes in the first place. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
