Hi fellas,
after reading someones's worries about SYN-DOS' with spoofed
IP-addresses using WindowsXP as a consumer OS having raw network
sockets, i wonder what's the need for it on BSD systems?
. ..with time going by i perceive linux to become more and more of a more
consumer OS, i could imagine to make Berkeley-sockets an opt-in there.
How about BSD? For what do you use raw network sockets these days?
