    Can someone give specific - and i mean specific commands for detecting DoS and DDoS attach on Linux?

    Specifically I am running lighttpd web server. So Apache junk does not help me.

    Also interested in recommendations of best open source DoS and DDoS detection software to run generally...

    thanks.

    I run netstat commands to count IPs connecting - but still not clear what "results" constitute evidence of an attack... thanks.
