Okay, thanks.

* That is a function of the new IPFW.  You *must* be on the console the
* first time you use it, OR you must add some default rules immediately
* after the network is configured to allow certain packets in.

Dman, I just figured out what I was doing wrong last night.   
"accept" != "allow".  Damn.  Could someone please nuke 
the bug report I submitted on the subject: bin/1077?

I still think the default rule should need to be compiled in, but 
as long as ipfw works, I can deal with it.
