Re: Connection opening problem (prev: FTP/auth problems (slooow links))

Hello,

The root of my problem was this:

 > [0:0] -A SYNFLOOD -m limit --limit 1/s --limit-burst 4 -j RETURN
 > [0:0] -A SYNFLOOD -j DROP
 > [0:0] -A CHECK -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST,ACK SYN -j SYNFLOOD

When the HTTP/FTP-clients etc. spawned several connections (in this case 
 >4) to download files, the router blocked them.

I guess that it adds protection to keep the SYNFLOOD check there. What 
are sensible values to use on -m limit, making it work for flooding, yet 
not stopping normal clients?

Thanks guys,
Svein
