Hello, I am installing a FreeBSD 6.1 i386 machine and using IPF. When I apply some variables to sysctl for IPF I end up with a device busy response. the variables in question are: net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpclosed=1 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpclosewait=60 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcphalfclosed=300 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpidletimeout=7200 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcplastack=20 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcptimeout=120 net.inet.ipf.fr_udptimeout=120 The problem occurs both on startup with these in sysctl.conf and if I try do enter it manually: imap# sysctl net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpclosed=1 net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpclosed: 120 sysctl: net.inet.ipf.fr_tcpclosed: Device busy These are the same variables that I have been using successfully on other versions of FreeBSD (5.x and 4.x) so I am inclined to think that I am missing something obvious in this latest version. I am running: FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p2 with: ipf: IP Filter: v4.1.8 (416) Any pointers? Thanks, Peter
