Hi,

=09Loading the kernel module "kldload ipfw", did the job.
=09But nothing using rc's files helps to prevent being locked with a
"deny all" default rule, since those files are not executed on module
load.
=09I had to use:

=09kldload ipfw ; sh /etc/rc.firewall
=09or
=09kldload ipfw ; ipfw add 1 pass all from any to any

Thank you for the help.

|Do you have IPFW code in your kernel?  (Either statically

|If you don't, then it doesn't work, of course.
|
|Try loading the IPFW KLD ("kldload ipfw").
