I took a different route in setting up a firewall than you seem to have.  

I just put:

options IPFIREWALL
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT="5000"                                        

in the kernel configuration

firewall_enable="YES"           # Set to YES to enable firewall functionality
firewall_type="XXXX"            # Firewall type (see /etc/rc.firewall) 
			     # (Note replace XXXX with the actual type you want)	
firewall_quiet="NO"             # Set to YES to suppress rule display          

in /etc/rc.conf

and then edited /etc/rc.firewall to do what I want it to do.  And now I am 
invincible-man (or not :]).  For further information I'd see:

www.freeBSD.org/handbook/firewalls.html
and the man page for ipfw(8)

Hi,
After configuring you /etc/services, /etc/netperm-table, and /etc/inetd.conf
files
How do you actually run the firewal?
Any documentation i've looked at doesn't answer that question for me.
So of anyone knows what to do please let me know.
cheers
TJ
