Hi

In my opinion there's no reason why to block LANDs attacks with PF. I 
suppose that you have a windows server with private IP address behind PF and 
you use some portmapping for services you need accessible from outside. So 
if you want to make a LAND attack you have to make a packet with equal 
source and destination address but in this case it's not possible at all 
because everything goes to PF's IP address. As a matter of fact if your 
windows server doesn't have a public IP you're safe.

Is it possible to protect my Windows server from LAND attack with PF?

I have tried searching Google and Benzedrine, but have not found any info.
