hi, i went thru the quries that u ahve solved..didnt know how to post one..so m mailing to u..pls reply to this one..
after limiting the no of ping requests using the limit rule in iptables...how do i write a rule to generate a particular display like this: clients m/c on cmd prompt : ping server_ip -t reply from server_ip.... reply from server_ip... reply from server_ip.... destination host unreachable. i.e i want my server to limit the no of reply packets to 3 even if the -t option is given and the drop any icmp packets coming from the client. I have my iptables rules on the server m/c which has a linux platform but my client is a windows system. Another query:how to test this???? also the ping of death attack which increases the size of packet to >65535....what shud be done to avoid ping of death attack...if u know any rule for the same pls let me know. Hoping for a reply from u.... Thanking in advance, Regards, Hetal
