Afternoon,
For a while now I've been seeing quite a lot of TCP sockets in the
SYN_RECV state on any machine offering public ipv4 services, which
should normally only happen if you can't route back to the source. Was
initially worried that I'd broken something, however have seen it on
boxes across a few providers now.
I've got a couple of theories but none adequately explain it, anyone
know for sure?
Thanks!
