How can I load the ipfw.ko module but not knock myself off the network ? My only thought was to put an `ipfw add` rule into a cron job to run one minute after I load the module, but that seems silly :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
