ISS is reporting that my Windows NT 4.0 (+ SP 6a + SRP) systems are vulnerable to the syncstorm (SYN flood denial of service) attack. All of the reading that I've done seem to indicate that Microsoft fixed it in an earlier hotfix, which has been rolled into the SRP. The remedy says to apply the new patches and to increase "the default limit of connection buffers". Is the second part needed on Windows NT? If so, how is it done? (A search of the NT Resource Kit Registry documentation didn't turn up anything obvious.) Thanks for any pointers!
