I've spent the better half of three days trying to get IPFILTER to install
on my FreeBSD 4.1 system.

The information I found pertaining to it says that to get it working all I
need to do is add
options IPFILTER
options IPFILTER_LOG
under options INET, recompile thje kernel, and install the kernel..  I
should then be able to reboot, and start ipfilter.
however, when I try to import the rules I was using on my OpenBSD machine, I
get the following errors:

[root@NIFLHEIM /etc]# ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules
open device: Device not configured
ioctl(SIOCIPFFL): Bad file descriptor
open device: Device not configured
2:ioctl(add/insert rule): Bad file descriptor
3:ioctl(add/insert rule): Bad file descriptor
4:ioctl(add/insert rule): Bad file descriptor

There are a many more lines following those last three displayed, infact one
for each line  in the ipf.rules file

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do/ what I'm not doing?

Regards,
	Keith
