I think you've edited your config file on other computer (and it was
non-unix computer!), because attached config file contains Ctrl-M characters
at the end of any line.  These characters are problem-holder :)

You have two ways:

1st. Upload your config file from dos/windows computer to your freebsd
system by ftp, but be sure you use ASCII transfer mode.
2nd. sed s/<Ctrl-V><Ctrl-M>// FURY.txt > FURY  and use FURY as your config
file.

And of course you have another way, but this way is the best - do all of
your works for freebsd with freebsd only. dos/windows are bad helpers in
such work.
