    Hi,

    Looks like my server is under ddos attack.

    Apache keeps failing.

    /var/log/messages shows following:-

    Dec 20 23:18:11 ns4 kernel: possible SYN flooding on port 80. Sending cookies.
    Dec 20 23:19:11 ns4 kernel: possible SYN flooding on port 80. Sending cookies.
    Dec 20 23:20:14 ns4 kernel: possible SYN flooding on port 80. Sending cookies.
    Dec 20 23:21:15 ns4 kernel: possible SYN flooding on port 80. Sending cookies.

    I have already enabled Connection Tracking (CT_LIMIT = 120) in CSF firewall, but still attack continues. Can someone help.

    Thanks
    UKA

    In CSF config Look for:

    SYNFLOOD = 1
