Really? I thought "-j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset" would always do
the right thing, even without specifying --syn (of course, it wouldn't
be a bad idea to specify it anyway). I have several systems running fine
without the --syn option explicitly mentioned. Could any of the "core"
guys say if my assumption is wrong?
