Re: Can we block the reset packets?

Well, looking at the RFC it seems like we should not receive a RST while the connection is in the ESTABLISHED STATE. So, maybe we can drop RST if ESTABLISHED?

Anyone know how to make iptables do that?

And I assume I am not 100% correct!
It just can't be that easy.

RFC 793, Figure 11 would happen with one end in the Established state, thinking it was in a full-open connection when it actually is only in a half-open connection due to the remote host's reboot.
