1) What ever happened to RST cookies? I see SYN cookies now, but
the RST option was taken out. Were they merged with the SYN
cookie option, or just discarded?

RST cookies were removed entirely. There were fatal flaws found in
the technique such that they RST cookies could be easily subverted and
SYN attacks still get through.
