Re: freebsd on xbox ?

I'm a huge FBSD fan, and i think the xbox would be an awesome server. It's small, it's got solid hardware, it's really easy to mod and install linux on --- so why not FBSD? The main reason for not having a FreeBSD distro for X-box is that the hardware by design is 0wn3d. Owned by Microsoft that is. While I appreciate every xbox that is sold Microsoft makes a loss on, I still couldn't be bothered. Microsoft (or whoever is doing to work) occasionally revises the firmware to stop non authorised mods from working. When this happens the boot loader has to be re-worked to suit the revision of the firmware. In short: Too hard for very little return. Think DCMA as you would circumventing the anti-piracy software/hardware. Personally I believe if you have bought the hardware, you should have all rights to that hardware except reproducing the hardware, but I am not about to get the soapbox out. Anybody out there worked on this? have a beta or alpha anything? I'd love to have the power of /usr/ports without the baggage of gentoo. I doubt anyone on this mailing list would want to touch it with a patent pending barge pole.

Re: being DOSed
Meimi, You you please get into the habit of bottom posting, it also reminds you to trim redundant or unnecessary text. You could install Portsentry and set it to block the offending Ip addresses. Ain this situation, I wouldn't be too concerned with blocking the false positives. that is spoofed source addresses, as you need the DDOS attack to stop. later you can construct some firewall rules to monitor those addresses for any reoccurance. The other solution you have is to unplug the network cable from your gateway router. That is if you have an ADSL router, unplug the router and not the network behind it. You need to make you network appear as though it has gone off line or moved ip addresses. Otherwise I'd wish you good luck (I have been through this exercise myself, it's not nice :-( ).
