Slackware is the target of DoS attacks.
TheQuirk:
True, but I only got it because the other guy didn't know anything about Linux and wanted someone to help. I was bored, up for a challenge, and ready to improve my Linux skills (it's always so much easier when you need to know something but you don't know it so you end up searching google franticly ). Edit: also, because I'm not charging money.
I could actually host something like that without a problem on belg88.com. Although, I doubt anyone would submit DDoS attacks, and I really won't have any time to maintain it. . .
Void: I haven't read the article, but I know that a router could handle a giant DoS attack without crashing - so why won't companies like Cisco configure things like "packet filtering" automaticlly? I mean, it's not hard to realize you're being attacked when the same packets are sent at a trillion megabits a second. . .

too bad you can't find out were those assholes live. slackware is volunteer based. lamerz anybody got any ip's, or know who hosts them? becuase DoSing their hosts /*well, aiming it at them and dragging the hosts network down after each of lamerz DoS attacks, might get them and us banned*/

Hey now, if the comment was directed to Voidman, its wrong.
He helps ALOT of people here. From basic what is GNU questions, to complex technical questions, on how to set up a web server, firewalls, shell scripts, C++ questions, samba, hardware troubleshooting.
No matter how stupid a question is, he will answer it. So back off.
And no am not kissing his ass. I have no reason to do that.
Anyway, I have cable connection but i was way over my head these three last months.
I already have made my home page. The site will deal with only Linux things.
I will be leaving for NYC on Monday, for the holidays, when I will come back, I will have time for my small project, and if someone wants to host something in my web server (that of my Computer's or that of my ISP's) just send me a PM.
I will be MORE than happy to do so, and give back something to the Linux community that helped/helps me alot, in more than one ways.

Yes indeed, but for example people in Quirks position, and others )there are many more( would just plug things in and watch em work!

If you mean that I just stick things in and hope they work, then you're wrong. . . I usually read up a lot before installing anything critecal, I'm signed up with anything-security-news-letter that has to do with me, and make sure to have everything updated. In fact, I'm about to update Ensim right now.
