Hi all, One of our mid-aged servers is running FBSD-4.7 RELEASE. It is a productive server, with lots of clients on it. I have recently activated ipfw, using Webmin as the front end to admin it. Ipfw is up and running, seems OK, BUT I am getting many many of these logs: /kernel: OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 2 Dec 18 05:41:01 excelsior /kernel: drop session, too many entries Dec 18 05:41:01 excelsior /kernel: OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 1 Dec 18 05:41:01 excelsior /kernel: OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 2 Dec 18 05:41:01 excelsior /kernel: drop session, too many entries Dec 18 05:41:01 excelsior /kernel: drop session, too many entries Dec 18 05:41:02 excelsior /kernel: OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 1 Dec 18 05:41:02 excelsior /kernel: OUCH! cannot remove rule, count 2 Dec 18 05:41:02 excelsior /kernel: drop session, too many entries Dec 18 05:41:02 excelsior last message repeated 2 times Can someone explain, what these are, do they mean anything to me, are they critical, and short of reloading a new OS, what can I do to get rid of them. FYI As this is a production servers, I would prefer not to rebuild the whole box, I have lots of proprietary tweaks built in. TIA! -Grant
