Why? Just don't drop connects to port 113 but reject them with RST instead. "Adaptive stealthing" is just crap. If your machine is active on the net, it can be detected (there are exceptions, but they do NOT apply to ADSL connections and for sophisticated attackers these exceptions almost always don't apply). If your machine is switched off, you do not care. So "adaptive stealthing" gives you two chances in bullshit bingo, but not anything useful. Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/
