You probably need to install a service to the "internet background radiation" ports.
Look at the "samba" port, itīll receive packets on the ports most virused microsoft
clients send to random destination addresses.

Hi, I've got a rather strange issue with UDP loss (at least I think it is) on my network, and 
frankly - I'm not sure it's me (think it might be the upstream providers stuff). Basically, the 
situation is this, FreeBSD 4.8 box connects to the upstream provider, and another one at 
another location acts as a gateway for the customers. The gateway box has very high 'drops' on 
it's UDP sockets, making streaming stuff awful - and output of netstat -s (UDP,TCP & IP 
only) on the gateway box is shown at the end of this post. My particular concern is these lines 
in the UDP output "41738 datagrams received
 / 33104 broadcast/multicast datagrams dropped due to no socket " which seems an inordinatly 
high amount. There are no drops due to full socket buffers, although I have recompiled the kernel 
with nmbclusters=8192 and Maxusers=1024 (to increase number of available sockets - 
kern.ipc.maxsockets to 9391), still the loss occurs. Any suggestions, and could someone explicitly 
explain what "broadcast/multicast datagrams dropped due to no socket"  means.

Many Thanks


Colin.
