I was thinking I was: 1. Letting NEW packet just pass ('la' stands for log&accept) but counting them. (those I take are initiating the client connection to the server) 2. Limiting those NEW paquets at 5 every 60 seconds. ('ld' stands for log&drop) I intend to count/limit only connection initiations, leaving alone the rest. I can't figure out where I catch more than I think I catch. Best regards, -- Olivier K
