I have RealSecure set to kill SYNFlood attacks via rskill (which are
tagged).  At what phase of the connection attempt does this happen?  The
reason I ask is that we recently had a SYNFlood attack on our mail server.
It was comprised of two attacks a minute apart from different IPs.  One hit
port 25 while the other hit port 110.  The server had to be rebooted prior
to SMTP functioning again.  I am concerned that rskill may have been the
problem either directly or because it did not kill the attacks soon enough?
