hello, i have a dedicated server from OVH and have updated freebsd to 9.1 and want to enable IPFW in the kernel as this is not enabled. the way i updated the system was to copy /boot/kernel.old to /boot/GENERIC then followed ch25 http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.htmlthis went well and the system is up to date. so i got the 9.1 sources and now in /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf i have a GENERIC file, but this is too generic, besides i don't have access to the physical box. what will be the correct way to include the IPFW to existing /boot/kernel is there a way to generate the GENERIC file from the existing loaded kernel? this is what # dmesg brings up http://pastebin.com/V8ZExNC8 do i need anything else? any advice much appreciated norman -- %>>> "".join( [ {'*':'@','^':'.'}.get(c,None) or chr(97+(ord(c)-83)%26) for c in ",adym,*)&uzq^zqf" ] )
