This is my current ruleset:

# allow loopback traffic
add 100 allow ip from any to any via lo0

# protect loopback address
add 200 deny log ip from 127.0.0.1 to any
add 249 deny log ip from any to 127.0.0.1

# block spoofs
add 400 deny log ip from me to any in via ed0

# enable NATD
add 425 divert 8668 ip from any to any via ed0

# check dynamic rules
add 450 check-state

# make dynamic entries for all outgoing traffic
add 500 allow log tcp from me to any 1-65535 keep-state out
add 550 allow log udp from me to any 1-65535 keep-state out

# services we offer to the world
add 600 allow log tcp from any to me 22,5067,5617,8472,10000 keep-state in

# pass ICMP
add 700 allow log icmp from me to any out
add 750 allow log icmp from any to me in

# pass everything on private LAN
add 800 allow log all from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
add 850 allow log all from any to 192.168.0.0/16

# log rejects that have fallen through
add 65000 deny log ip from any to any

Whith this ruleset I can browse websites, FTP sites etc.

But when I replace rules 500 and 550 with this:

add 500 allow log tcp from me to any 21,80 keep-state out
add 550 allow log udp from me to any 21,80 keep-state out

I cannot acces any websites nor FTP sites. But I guess I had just allowed
it?

Or is the 'out' the problem here.

Marcel.

There is a problem with the rule in the example: You allowed traffic to
leave
through those ports, but not to enter. We can fix this rule:

add 550 allow tcp from me to any 80,21,22 keep-state

I noticed you already had a rule 550 - you may want to give it a different
number. IPFW (running 4.5R here) gives the following error when trying to
load your rule:

ipfw: only TCP and UDP protocols are valid with port specifications

hence why i changed it from ip to tcp.
