| |
Hi, The TIS gauntlet firewall modifies the BSDi kernel so that when packets are received on unserved ports the kernel logs a security alert via syslog. That way you don't have to be actively scanning the network for port scans and can just scan your syslog instead. I looked through the Linux security HOWTO and couldn't find any mention of this. Is this possible with the Linux kernel?
