Can anyone help? Does > anyone have a sample ipfw rules file? You can look at rc.firewall for examples. However, configuring a firewall is not just knowing how to write the rules, but also deciding on a security policy you want to implement. No one can help you if you don't know what you want the firewall to do. The best would be to get yourself a good book on Internet security. I have: "Firewalls and Internel Security - Repelling the Wily Hacker" by Cheswick & Bellovin, Addison-Wesley, ISBN: 0-201-63357-4. There are many others as well. > > Thanks > > Ozcar Cortez > Nadav
