Hi,

I'm calling it a 'quasi' DoS because I'm not sure exactly what to call this. It seems someone has a piece of software that is performing thousands of connections per hour to my BSD sockets-based server. They're just connecting though, and not transmitting anything once they connect. No harm has come to the server, it's just making it difficult to use it for its intended purpose.

What is the correct course of action in a case like this?

Thanks,
-Chilton
