I use ipfw on my machine. Has your rc.firewall script become corrupted? You should be able to enter some manual commands from your firewall script to verify that your system is forwarding packets and filtering properly. If you enter "ipfw -F; ipfw add pass any from any via fxp0" or whatever your network card is, your network should open up and act ok. This would indicate you have a syntax error in your script.
