I rebooted one of my boxes 24 hours ago.  I run the "open" firewall
set with ppp -alias (as an on-demand packet filter, I know, I should
do better) ;) but saw something strange in last night's security
check.

Rule 65000 clearly states

	65000 allow ip from any to any

yet this came across in my logs last night:

xxx.xxx.xxx denied packets:
> 65535      2       139 deny ip from any to any

I don't see how it could, unless someone was fudging with my ipfw
config.  Or do I just not know something?  (I do run options NETATALK
here, could that somehow have snuck in?)
