I'm not sure if anyone posted this up yet, but olddust of the Renstation forums posted some information of a program that can possibly spell doom to the Renegade servers.

Here is the link to the original post:

I'm not sure if Renguard can do anything about this, but I hope so.

1 lousy packet to take down a server?

WOW

Thats sad.

Anyway, I'm sure that if a router does protect from this "Packet of Impending Doom" (router protects and blocks a lot of things) that most dedicated servers will be able to stand this lone packet.

Or even a software firewall could prevent this if set up correctly, no?

Who here is experiencing these problems?

I informed Crimson 1.5 years ago, that this exploit exists. Maybe it was known to them even earlier. I m not sure if the bug fix really works. There are server admins still reporting this server crash. I personally have no problems any more.
