System: FreeBSD kosmos.my.net 4.9-STABLE FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE #1: Sat Jan 31 13:49:20 PST 2004 root@kosmos.my.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/KOSMOS i386


>Description:
When a default GENERIC 4.9-STABLE system is configured for natd and OPEN firewall type, when system boots and tries to add an ipfw rule using the divert keyword, it fails:

Jan 31 13:27:01 kosmos /kernel: IP packet filtering initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding enabled, default to d$
Jan 31 13:27:01 kosmos /kernel: ip_fw_ctl: invalid command

In /etc/rc.firewall (Network Address Translation Section, near line 110) the following line triggers the error:

${fwcmd} add 50 divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface}

This error only happens when using the firewall klm, as when the sytem is built with a default GENERIC kernel.

If the kernel is rebuilt with firewall options enabled:

options         IPFIREWALL
options         IPDIVERT

the divert command in /etc/rc.firewall works fine, becuase the klm is not loaded

>How-To-Repeat:

	1.) Obtain latest 4.9-STABLE source tree (probably post Jan. 26th)
	2.) Modify /etc/rc.conf to set system up for nat forwarding

	natd_enable="YES"
	firewall_enable="YES"
	firewall_type="OPEN"

	3.) Build and install a system using GENERIC kernel configuration to force firewall klm to load
	4.) Reboot, noting "Invalid command" error message on screen and in /var/log/messages

	5.) rebuild kernel with options 
		options         IPFIREWALL
		options         IPDIVERT

	6.) reboot system, noting that firewall divert command works correctly

>Fix:

	Workaround: build kernel with IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT options, circumventing the firewall kernel loadable module.
