Hi all, Does the INVALID state filter prevent port (nmap) scans? That is, would the following stateful rule: iptables -A INPUT -m state --state INVALID -j DROP do the same job as the following stateless rules? iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,ACK SYN,ACK -m -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL NONE -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,FIN SYN,FIN -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN,RST -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL SYN,RST,ACK,FIN,URG -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags FIN,RST FIN,RST -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,FIN FIN -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,PSH PSH -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,URG URG -j DROP etc etc. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
