Hi bart.

Thanks for your suggestion. Yep, I know there are many types of DDoS attack,
but some of them are not common and will not occur for a personal IDS. I
think the port-scan and the sync-attack are most common forms of attack for
a personal server or something.
Since you have experience in this area, what's your opinion? If you have
more information about this and the kernel part in a DDoS attack, please
send me some links. Thanks. I have been hacking into Linux kernel to improve
the receiving speed recently.
It's nice to have your help =)
