The box was 4.1.1-STABLE, 'supped on 10/24/00. Yesterday I supped in 4.2-BETA #0, re-installed world and a fresh kernel and discovered this morning that this had no effect. The box is 'Default Deny' so the purged rules keep everyone out but results in a DOS of sorts. Any ideas or similar experiences? For now I've resorted to cron to re-run the ipfw rule script periodically as a precaution. --Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
