So, I added the following to /etc/sysctl.conf net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_buckets=512 net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_max=2000 Looking at sysctl -a | grep ip.fw I see that dyn_buckets has been set to 512 and dyn_max has been set to 2000. However curr_dyn_bucets is at 256 and its never seems to go over that. I've never seen a bucket number beyond 255 in an ipfw show listing. Have tried doing this by hand, flushing ipfw's rules first with the same result. Is there something amiss with the dyn_buckets knob? ________________________________________________________________________ Darren Henderson darren@bmv.state.me.us darren.henderson@state.me.us To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
