Maybe you should install a few little tools such as icmpinfo and when someone
is caught, complain. This little program works perfect, I redirect all the logging to
tty9 and as soon as some "3l33t" IRC c*nt starts syndrop'ing the box they're
caught. I think once they are caught once and they have problems they think
twice about doing it again.
