Package: procps Version: 2:3.3.12-3 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
# Uncomment the next line to enable TCP/IP SYN cookies # See http://lwn.net/Articles/277146/ # Note: This may impact IPv6 TCP sessions too #net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies=1 Syncookies has been enabled by default in the kernel for some years. My recommendation would be to remove those lines from sysctl.conf entirely.
