DDOS

[shukin at gsenterprises.biz (Geoff Shukin)]

Hi!

I am curious to know what folks are doing to combat the issue of DDOS
attacks.  I have heard about solutions from Arbor and TopLayer but wonder if
they are effective.  Are there any other suggestions out there in PaulDotCom
land?

We have seen DDOS attacks against one of our websites (using a combination
of ICMP, TCP SYN and UDP flood attacks). Firewall stops the attacks in that
the web servers are ok but the firewall falls over with 100% CPU.

Thanks

Geoff
