In order to do so, you must either compile support into the kernel (older releases), or load the KLM (Kernel Loadable Module) for ipfw. Since you don't mention your version (`uname -a`), I can't guess what you'll need to do. Try this as root: $ kldload ipfw.ko and see if it fixes your problem. See the firewalls section of the FreeBSD handbook for more information. HTH, Kevin Kinsey -- And what will you do when you grow up to be as big as me? asked the father of his little son. Diet.
