we need more details. are you by any chance using your schools DNS server for

Just checked back again - sorry about the delay. Not that I know of -
the router address is specified in the DNS tab in the network settings
utility, so I think it's using RoadRunner supplied DNSs.
SYN from from where? to where? what port(s)?
This is the event log:

I had the XP and Debian boxes up originally, then when I noticed this
going on, took the XP off the network and it jumped to the Debian box.
Today, its just 124 IP Fragmented Packets from my school's server to my
XP box.
Thanks -

Hello, all,
I'm new here <waves> and just came across something fairly scary. My
home router shows something called an IP Fragmented Packet *from my
school's DNS server*, then there's a series of LAN-side SYN Flood, then
just plain SYN Flood, events to and from my [innocent, I swear!]
router's IP to some address in Atlanta, back from Atlanta, then to a
rival school's IP address here.
My systems are XP and Debian 2.6 - when I shut down the XP, it jumped to
the Debian. Can anyone clue me into wth's going on?
Many thanks -
MG
