I was reading Steve Gibson's site today and came across an interesting
article on how he implemented SYN Flood protection for his site.

On the third page of the article he mentions that Dan Bernstein and Eric
Schenk implemented a similar fix for Linux back in 1996.

That fix is in the kernel right now. It is disabled by default. Maybe it
should be enabled for LRP/LEAF.
