Unknown if anyone else knows about this or even said anything about it but i didn't see anything so i thought i would say something. You can kill all the bandwidth out of MacOS up to 8.* , by finding a open port ( only 1 ) and by using synk command line "synk 0 ip open_port then_the_next_port" . MacOS tcp/ip stack can't handle synfloods and inturn it takes all bandwidth alway from that box.... keep it for 5 mins or so and all conn's from the box _should_ die ( telnets/ftps/ircs/etc )..... For anyone who would like more info on synflooding check out http://spikeman.dyn.ml.org/dos/synflood.html ___ /\ \ ~`~ Spikeman ~`~ /::\ \ /:/\:\ \ http://spikeman.dyn.ml.org/dos/ _\:\~\:\ \ http://home.onestop.net/spikeman/ /\ \:\ \:\__\ spikemanat_private \:\ \:\ \/__/ spikemanat_private \:\ \:\__\ \:\/:/ / \::/ / \/__/
