Instead of the lengthy procedure of building FreeBSD from sources, I tried to use freebsd-update. On two of the servers, I ran into a problem. Obviously GENERIC kernel with ipfw module loaded couldn't provide the functionality of a kernel, compiled with IPFIREWALL_FORWARD option. So I've returned to my old ways of updating, but I forgot the crontab entry which invoked freebsd-update. To my surprise, yesterday I received a message, that said that updates are downloaded for my kernel (currently FreeBSD 6.2p3 - yeah, I'm lazy ...). Does this mean that freebsd-update team builds kernels with IPFIREWALL_FORWARD now?
