Completely documented Tcp/IP, AFD, NetBT, DNS, and more for security + speed

Recommended Posts

Wow, this thread is an "above and beyond" type post Alec. I imagine you put in many hours to research this and get it all posted. I give you props man. Hell, it took me a long time just to read through it hehe.

 

Anyway, great post! Very informative.

It has been a long time since I looked at those files (it was not just one post but several). As I recall it was an extended hosts file that was primarily set up for a computer with a phone modem. It was enormous. Perhaps, if you could detail what you are looking for (I suppose in the way of better security), there are some very knowledgable people here who could point you in a particular direction.

Sure looks funny with all those threads, where half the contents now have been removed. Can you point me to a post explaining the cause of this ? (*Update* Found a Thread, seems to be a touchy subject)

 

Most of the network stuff described was taken from these pages:

 

TCP/IP and NBT Configuration Parameters for Windows XP (Q314053)

HOW TO: Harden the TCP/IP Stack Against Denial of Service Attacks in Windows Server 2003 (Q324270)

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 TCP/IP Implementation Details

 

The AlecStar/APK Homepage is still up.

That cache will probably disappear over time, so if the info is important to you, then you should save it some where.
