Port knocking seems to be that you log connection attempts to various ports that are otherwise closed, EG: iptables -I input -p tcp -j DENY -l and then watch the log file for a specific, exact sequence of connections from a common source IP. How would that help me here? Are you suggesting that I log the inbound port 80, and then watch the logfile with a background script/daemon to clear out the rules? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
