I have been busting my brain trying to figure this out and can't so thought
I would ask here or maybe find out if what I'm trying to do can't be done
at all.

Is there a way with IPFW to block all incoming icmp..mainly concerned about
ping attacks..but at the same time still allow ME to use ping/traceroute
from my machine.

I found an example after searching and while it blocked incoming perfectly,
I could no longer use ping or traceroute from my machine OUT. So if there
is a way, I would appreciate it if someone could inform me. Thanks.

Sam
