Other uses Land disambiguation A LAND Local Area Network Denial attack is a Denial of service attack DoS Denial of Service attack that consists of sending a special poison Spoofing attack spoofed packet information technology packet to a computer, causing it to lock up. The security flaw was actually first discovered in 1997 by someone using the alias m3lt , and has resurfaced many years later in operating system s such as Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP SP2. How it works The attack involves sending a spoofed Transmission Control Protocol TCP SYN TCP SYN packet connection initiation with the target host s IP address to an open port as both source and destination. The reason a LAND attack works is because it causes the machine to reply to itself continuously. Definition A LAND attack involves IP packets where the source and destination address are set to address the same device.

Unreferenced date December 2009 About the pen name the landgrant Maxwell LandGrant Maxwell Grant was a pen name used by the authors of The Shadow pulp magazine stories. Street and Smith Publications , the publishers of The Shadow , asked Walter B. Gibson , a writer hired to chronicle the Shadow s adventures, to create a pen name for the Shadow s author for several reasons, primarily so that numerous authors could be used to write the stories without confusing the readers. Gibson, who was also a nonfiction writer, wanted to use a pen name for his fiction. He adopted the pen name Maxwell Grant, taking the name from two magic illusion magic dealers he knew, Maxwell Holden and U.F. Grant. Three authors besides Gibson have used the Maxwell Grant pen name Theodore Tinsley , who wrote 27 Shadow stories between 1936 and 1943 Bruce Elliott , who wrote 15 Shadow stories between 1946 and 1948 and Michael Collins author Dennis Lynds , who wrote nine Shadow paperback novels between 1964 and 1967.
