Problem with SYN flooding
by Simon Mburu 07 Jun '13

07 Jun '13

Hello Skunks, I am having an issue with SYN flooding on a Sigtran USSD gateway. I keep getting the following message "Jun 6 18:20:09 ussd kernel: possible SYN flooding on port 5420. Sending cookies." thus making connection/listening to port 5420 impossible. I have tried increasing the the tcp_max_syn_backlog to 4096, 5012 and 65536 but to no avail. My sysctl -p looks like the below net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts = 1 net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1 fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 65536 My netstat -tuna | grep SYN never shows entries more than 12. I have also noted that once i stop the gateway, the SYN flooding is no longer there thus removing the fear of outside attacks. What could my problem/solution. NB: I am trying to avoid solutions that will mean I have to recompile my kernel. Kind Regards, Frustrated Simon

UPS with AVR pass-through
by Adam Nelson 06 Jun '13

06 Jun '13

Anybody know where to get a UPS that has AVR pass through (i.e. some sockets are on the battery and some are not but still get the voltage protection). I'd like to get my router on the battery but not items like a printer or scanner - although I'd still like them to have protection. None of the UPSes I've seen in stores locally have this but maybe there's a store people know about with one?
