FreeBSD fw.intranet 4.3-STABLE FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE #1: Wed May 23 09:45:59 EDT 2001     root@fw.intranet:/data/obj/data/src/sys/FW  i386

>Description:
According to the 'init' manpage, running at securelevel 2 should still
allow the flushing/changing of ipf/ipnat rules.  This is true for ipfw,
but is not true for ipf.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run a firewall at securelevel 2 and try to flush/change your ipf or 
ipnat rules.
>Fix:
There are only two references to securelevel in the ip-filter code.
They should be changed from 'securelevel >= 2' to 'securelevel >=3'.
