Define a filter to drop the packets with SYN+FIN flags set.

 The only people who can help is your ISP. Talk to them and hopefully

 they can trace the attack upstream.


 I once added this to pf.conf to mitigate a DDoS. It appeared to have 
 worked, but it may have been a placebo effect ;)

 set optimization aggressive
 set timeout tcp.first 45
 set timeout tcp.established 43200
 set timeout { adaptive.start 3, adaptive.end 45000 } set limit 
 states 4



 This might help with a SYN attack as long you still have available 
 bandwidth. Additionally, this wouldn't help against any non-TCP
packet.
 If an attacker is exhausting your pipe, all the firewalling in the 
 world won't help. You'll have to have upstream ISPs route the packets 
 into /dev/null.

Disable logging since it takes up a lot of resources and ``set
block-policy drop'' so your machine won't attempt to reply to
bogus requests.

Normally I'm not in favour of these measures. Logging a ddoss for
a while must be done to gather evidence, logging must done at all
other times as well.

It won't help your connection but at least your machine becomes
responsive again.

With DOS, there was something you could do.  With DDOS, you will have to
either get a huge pipe and systems to just take it, or move and have
your ISP do something like http://www.secsup.org/Tracking/
