I got a firewall with openbsd 4.1 and pf and it's receiving a lot of syn floods attacks and even udp floods,...

I am new at that an have been using pp 68 - 71 of the Book of PF cover this as does "Firewalling with OpenBSD's PF packet filter", both by Peter Hansteen.

I use overloads for the massive number of SSH probes and have chosen rather restrictive rules:

        block in log quick on $ext_if from <ssh-bruteforce> \
        label BLOCKBRUTES

        pass in on $ext_if proto tcp to ($ext_if) port ssh \
        flags S/SA keep state \
         (max-src-conn 3, max-src-conn-rate 3/60, overload \
        <ssh-bruteforce> flush global) \
         label BLOCKBRUTES
YMMV
