   Source address checking ... hm-m, pretty idea, but it do not very
large help - it is very simple to make login to some public (or not
very protected) host and produce SYN flood from legitimate address.
At least one day server would be blocked. And after that - force
shutdown communication between server and this public host (net)
BY SERVER OWNER HANDS !
