Michael,
I hope I am not barking up the wrong tree here, but my understanding is that
ipfw selects packets to forward to dummynet. This would make it illogical
(and hence probably impossible) to run dummynet without having ipfw running
correctly.
The man page for 'dummynet' says:
In its current implementation, packet selection is done with the ipfw
program, by means of ``pipe'' rules.
I think you will have to go about this the hard way.....
Regards,
Patrick O'Reilly

Subject: dummynet as modules
Hi there,
How do I compile a a kernel without ipfw, and a ipfw.ko module with
dummynet support?
I have to add some features to the dummynet code, so instead of
rebooting every 5 mins I figured kldloading it would save me some time.
I tried several combinations like 'options DUMMYNET' but no 'options
IPFIREWALL', even defined DUMMYNET in the modules/ipfw/Makefile but it
all resulted in undefined symbols when either building or kldloading...
Any ideas?
Michael Solan
