by using tcpdump -nlASX -s 0 -vvv port 80 I get something like:
14:58:55.121160 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 49764, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 1480)

What do I pull to use IPTables to block via string. Or is there a better way to block attacks that have something in common?
Question is:
Can I pick any piece from that IP packet and call it a string?
iptables -A INPUT -m string --alog bm --string attack_string -j DROP
In other words:
In some cases I can ban with TTL=xxx and use that should an attack have the same TTL. Sure it will block some legit packets but if it means keeping the box up it works till the attack goes away but I would like to LEARN how to FIND other common things in a packet to block with IPTables
