Just a couple of questions about IPFW-related things:


1)  Somewhere the other day I read a recommendation... which looked rather
    official to me that the time... that all fragments should be firwalled
    out, e.g. thusly:

        deny any to any in frag

    Is that actually a Good Thing To Do?  Are there really no legitimate
    packate fragments out there on the Internet?

2)  What is the significance of the last three numbers in the following log
    line?  What exactly does each one of them represent?

Jul 28 00:00:13 segfault kernel: ipfw: 250 Deny UDP 192.228.91.19 66.60.171.112 in via rl0 (frag 60396:368@1480)
