next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I recently set up an IPF firewall using the ruleset found in the FreeBSD handbook. I notice that when I attempt to replace the currently running ruleset, my system (FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE) is unable to recognize the file name. For instance, the command, "ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules" results in "26: unknown words at end: [/], ipf: /etc/ipf.rules: parse error (1), quitting." The file command for /etc/ipf.rules returns "ASCII English text". Didn't find any help with Google, or the archive mailing lists. Bob
