>Description:
	
	The handbook description of ipfw is wrong and useless for how to
ask ipfw to list the rules.  The handbook says:
8.4.4.2. Listing the IPFW rules

The syntax for this form of the command is:

ipfw [-a] [-t] [-N] l


>How-To-Repeat:

Point your browser to:
       file:///usr/share/doc/handbook/firewalls.html
	
>Fix:

   The proper line is

ipfw [-a] [-t] [-N] list

	

add the word 'list' to your command line.
