I am puzzled by ipfw and ipfilter. I am looking at ipfilter to get NAT, because i believe that ipfw provides "enough" security. q) is it true that ipfw and ipfilter are providing roughly the same function? q) if so, is there a reason to prefer one or the other? (Why does FreeBSD come with ipfw?) -mark
