Running 3.2 Release on a 486 as gateway/firewall with Samba and Apache.
It's great, and I'd like to just leave it running.

However: At 2am. daily/periodical runs and ipfw denies packets which
seem to come from the IP previously dynamically assigned to me eg:

ipfw: 65435 Deny UDP 212.188.144.220:1026 212.49.224.1:53 out via tun0

ppp is in auto mode and the modem dials up at about the same time.

I've rem'd the netstat -i line in /etc/periodic/daily/420.status-network

I don't really want to disable sendmail (if it is the culprit), so is
there another way?

I can see how useful this would be for remote administration, but I
don't need it in my situation.

Thanks again.
John.
