TopPost: Thanks for the quick responses. So, I gather under IPFW(#1), it's either 38 lines or upgrade to IPFW2 I haven't had time to study IPFW2 too well, although I know how to upgrade. A follow-up question is that, if I do upgrade, will IPFW2 still use my old rules until I can get around to tuning/tweaking...??
