I've been using Linux for a few years now but am currently setting up a web server which is failrly new to me. As a newbie it's bound to have many security holes until i've finished reading the books:-) Even then i know it won't be secure. So, is there really no way to stop these attacks? if not, what measures can a sysadmin take to at least minimalise the impact od DoS attacks?
Wonder if they have a porn directory with naked pictures of Pierce Brosnan and an mp3 directory consisting of The Matrix soundtrack?
Probably not...
