Which /proc flags? Indeed it is a linux box, the firewall, which I have
access to. My coworker, the administrator of this box, has simply turned a
blind eye to this, on the grounds that it's not actually causing problems,
just noise... but if it's a simple tweak, I'm sure he could be bribed with
caffeine or somesuch.

Thanks, looks like that sysctl is what I've been looking for. Though you
seem to indicate I would have to modify the kernel to achieve this, it seems
to be that way already -- perhaps a recent thing? Regardless, I find it
somewhat surprising my googling didn't point me in this direction.
