This is FreeBSD-stable as of Sep 18, 1999.

>Description:

Since I last cvsup'd and made world, `ipfw' doesn't grok anymore the
log keyword described in the manual.  Previously, invoking `ipfw' like 
this would have the desired effect:

    # ipfw add deny log tcp from any to any in via ppp0 setup

Now, strangly, it prints:

    ipfw: sysctlbyname("net.inet.ip.fw.verbose_limit")

Also, when a rule containing the "log" keyword is in a command file,
and `ipfw' is invoked like "ipfw commandfile", then reading the
command file aborts at the line containing the "log" keyword, and all
lines after that line are ignored.

>How-To-Repeat:

# ipfw add deny log tcp from any to any

>Fix:
	
Workaround: Leave out the "log" keyword.
