Hardening Windows 2003 TCP/IP Stacks

How To Harden the TCP/IP Stack Against Denial of Service Attacks in Windows Server 2003

This article was previously published under Q324270
For a Microsoft Windows 2000 version of this article, see 315669.

The default TCP/IP stack configuration is tuned to handle standard intranet traffic. If you connect a computer directly to the Internet, Microsoft recommends that you harden the TCP/IP stack against denial of service attacks.

I've attached (below) a REG file that I made that has all the default hardening parameters I would apply for Windows 2000/XP/2003.

This is one of the best sites I've come across in a long time.(for content and links) It doesn't render so good on Firefox, especially with scripts disabled. I've got about 10 or twelve tabs open from the links I'm interested in. I will definitely check in on it often for new content. Anyways, the link for this article (the .reg file) doesn't work. Any chance of emailing me it in the form of a zip file? Thanks. Also, feel free to shoot me a message when you post something new on Win Servers stuff, AD, Linux, VMware or new cool software you've come across.
