[Cooker] New important feature in xinetd pre15
xinetd 2.1.8.9pre15 is out. It includes a patch (SENSOR) from a friend of mine that basically gives the ability to stop port scanning script kiddies before they do any harm. In a nut shell, what is does is to monitor an unused port likely to be scanned by kiddies, and when it get scanned, it denies further access to all other services to the offending IP(s) until a preset time-out period expires. We need lots of users to test this, so a cooker upgrade is ideal. pre15 also contains several other fixes. -- Eugenio Diaz, BSEE/BSCE Linux Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Now if I can get a working cooker...(tomorrow!) I'll try it and feed back... -- -m-
