I am currently trying to limit the number of incoming connections
on a Solaris 8 public server.
For my Linux boxes, I use a feature of iptables called iplimit,
which enables to reject/drop incoming connections when the parallel
number of connexions from one specific host reach a certain value.
This avoids my hosts behing overloaded by a few 'aggressive' clients.
I was not enable to find such a feature on ipfilter in the FAQs or
tutorial. Does this feature exist ? Is there a way to reproduce such
a behaviour ? Or is this definitely impossible to do ?
Thanks for your time,
