    I would like to add; once the multiple doctoral degrees have come obsolete, we will have to come up with some kind of of super degree. The kind that goes to eleven.

    You sound just like an apple fan boy. I have noticed similarities between both. Not that I don't like BSD, on the contrary.

    Alien source software. n/t

  5. Again, iptables tarpit doesn't use any connection. It handles the tarpitting before initiating a connection by fooling the attacker into believing a connection is open but no connection overhead takes place on the host.

    Just read the fine man page:
    https://linux.die.net/man/8/ip...:
    "TARPIT: Captures and holds incoming TCP connections using no local per-connection resources..."

    Exactly, a bachelor's degree nowadays is worth about the same if not less than a high school degree back then.

  7. Just ask investors to forward to returned money to you!

  8. You might want to read the official docs. The link you posted has a non-negligible amount of BS in it. For the valid points, I am covered and monitor things. Believe it or not, I even ran simulations to see what happens...

    The utter BS in your link: in realty, iptables tarpit doesn't use any connections, 0, nada. No connection overhead involved; 0.

    For me, the experience has been quite the opposite of the first poster in your link who states himself that he is outdated; I used to think iptables tarpit was a crazy idea and running it was asking for trouble. I came to find out that it was a very viable option.

  9. If you scan my web site, all ports will look open. Who knows? Maybe Giuliani is such a security tsar that he also runs tarpit on his server... ;-)

  16. Yep, in 2017, we expose stuff to the Internet and it is perfectly safe to do so as long as you know what you are doing. In the old days, dedicated physical pipes were viewed as much safer and were commonly used. Then came "virtual physical pipes". Nowadays, very few outfits use real physical dedicated pipes.

    Irrelevant, the important thing is that it scales.

    Now, I sign all outgoing email, it never hurt anybody. Also, it advertises that I can exchange encrypted mail should to other party ever wish to do so.
