Re: On TCP sequence numbers
[ Geoff Rehmet ] Another question that comes in to this is - how good a tool is nmap for evaluating the predictability of the sequence numbers we generate? Just a funny (?) aside - while playing about with nmap here a while back, a colleague accidentally discovered that our Digital (or Compaq Tru64, if you want to be perverse) Unix 4.0E box was using a constant (?!) sequence number.

Re: On TCP sequence numbers
Another question that comes in to this is - how good a tool is nmap for evaluating the predictability of the sequence numbers we generate? Ideally, I would like to do some improvements to our sequence number generation. Thoughts? What is OpenBSD like in this regard ? AFAIR it has various algorithms for randomizing sequence numbers I think..
