Default Section 9

I thought I would add a few sections to this tutorial. If anyone can further help out by adding to this tutorial please do.

9.)

UDP Flood Countermeasures (Linux)

-Some new distro's already have these commented out by default.
-Edit your /etc/inetd.conf placing # infront of all lines below.
-If #'s already exist, then your distro already performed this.

#echo stream tcp nowait root internal
#echo dgram udp wait root internal
#discard stream tcp nowait root internal
#discard dgram udp wait root internal
#daytime stream tcp nowait root internal
#daytime dgram udp wait root internal
#chargen stream tcp nowait root internal
#chargen dgram udp wait root internal
#time stream tcp nowait root internal
#time dgram udp wait root internal

At cmd line restart inetd after you make changes:

# killall -HUP inetd
