Subject:   ipfirewall won't load rules

I've just built our first 2.2.5 server.  I believe I set it up just like
our 2.2.2 servers, but it won't load ipfw rules from rc.firewall like the
older machines do.

I know the kernel config is fine because I can manually load rules using
ipfw from the command line after it boots and all works well then.

In rc.conf, I've got

  firewall="client"

and rc.firewall currently has only

  /sbin/ipfw -f flush
  /sbin/ipfw add 65001 pass all from any to any

however, after booting, "ipfw show" gives

  65535         35       3005 deny ip from any to any

and after loading the two rules by hand, shows

  65001       5260     821572 allow ip from any to any
  65535         35       3005 deny ip from any to any

Is there some new thing in 2.2.5 regarding firewalls?  The release notes
don't address anything.
