Yes. But in my opinion dropping packages is very unfriendly. Given the amount of bad boy in the internet it might be acceptable. But I will always send back an RST for all networks I am responsible for.
In this case I have an opensuse notebook that has just to dend RST by default instead of dropping packages.

RST for TCP. For other protocols icmp-port-unreachable. This is the behavoiur of systems without firewalls if I remember correctly. Christoph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
