Ummm... Not sure what you mean here. Are you saying you want to nuke the current configuration and reload a new one? How to clear and realod your rules depends on exactly how you are using IPFilter. Or are you talking about ripping out some code and rebuilding? There is no real practical way _remove_ all of the code since it some of it lives in the kernel without rebuilding the whole system. But if you want to rebuild your system, http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html#STABLE Is the place to start. -- Crist J.
