Hello people, Can anybody help me with understanding the difference between ipfilter(ipf) and ipfirewall (ipfw). Any link to docs or info will greatly help me. I use FreeBSD for almost 5 years, but i used only ipfw for packet routing and never use ipfilter for this. I wonder is it "internal" packet routing mechanism or maybe it is just for compatibility with OpenBSD? Sorry if this question is so stupid, but i am really dont know what ipfilter is, man ipf did not help me with understanding the difference. Thanks. Sorry if i mistake list to wich i need send this.
