I was looking at the ipfw rules on your post "IPFW error, help?" and I
did not notice the following which can explain access denied to
localhost.

# Allow loopbacks, deny imposters
${fwcmd} add 100 pass all from any to any via lo0
${fwcmd} add 200 deny all from any to 127.0.0.0/8
# Stop spoofing
${fwcmd} add deny all from ${inet}:${imask} to any in via ${oif}
${fwcmd} add deny all from ${onet}:${omask} to any in via ${iif}

The above are just after flush on my rules. But my definitions are
before, I guess what I am trying to say is that just make sure the above
rules are the first rules.

Regards,
Ramon
