how many IPFW rules?

Hello FreeBSD people! I have a smtp server under attack by what seems like a large botnet. My inetd is choking under the load and not allowing real mail through. I've successfully used tshark to find the offenders and put them into ipfw firewall for port 25. So here is my question, I'm

T, I don't know any soft way to say this. The man, Hitler, was the most evil person that our generation has ever witnessed. The things he did and what was done on his behalf are unspeakable and give him a special place in whatever hell you believe in. As a society, we should distance

I'm not going to reply to your personal attack but will only say that you are definitely much smarter, more web savy and better looking than me. It's not an ``attack'', but merely a request to avoid what may be considered as a ``fault'' of the FreeBSD Project. As far as the rest of your

Hm, I'm astonished. I've never seen that page before... English is not my native language and I may not understand all nuances though. Does that phrase mean Hitler quotes are not usually be declared 'offensive'? For me that means that there some (and very little) his quotes that should be
