Re: strange problem with ipfw and rc.conf



Hi ipfreak,


Meditate on this :)

1. ..... why securelevel =3D 2 and what it does?
kern_securelevel=3D"2"
kern_securelevel_enable=3D"YES"


2. ...... Is in the ipfw.rules has a simple section?=20
......Is the firewall_enable=3D"YES" figure in the rc.conf file?
firewall_script=3D"/etc/ipfw.rules"=20
firewall_type=3D"simple"
firewall_quiet=3D"YES"


3. If you wish to work with firewall (ipfw) why ipfilter is on?
ipfilter_enable=3D"YES"
ipfilter_rules=3D"/etc/ipf.rules" =20

If you answer yourself these questions , you will find the real
solution!




sorry for my terrible english=20

поздрави!
