This will be quite illegal. Consider this scenerion. Cracker compromises a military server and uses it to attack your machine. Your machine launches a DoS against the military server. They come after both the cracker *and* you. You can rather block traffic to your machine from their server, and possibly do a whois on their ip address to trace down the person to contact and send them an e-mail to look into the situation(a CC to their ISP should help).
