I found the problem though I haven't found the cause. It turns out that the tcp/ip stack was working all along but ipfw is having trouble. When I list all the rules, I get all the rules I put in, but none of the rules that rc.firewall is supposed to install which are needed for open operation. That does completely disable even local icmp plus just about everything else. My thanks to Greg Barniskis who mentioned ipfw which turned out to be the culprit. Now, I will try to figure out why rc.firewall which is certainly right where it should be is being ignored. Thanks to all.
