Subject:   ipfilter with FreeBSD 4.4 question

I'm running ipfilter on my FreeBSD 4.4 box.

#dmesg

--snip--
IP Filter: v3.4.20 initialized. Default = pass all, Logging = enabled
--snip--

1. Where does it look by default for ipf.rules to set up the rules?

If I place the following in my /etc/rc.conf file:

ipfilter_enable="YES"
ipfilter_program="/sbin/ipf -Fa -f"
ipfilter_rules="/usr/local/etc/ipfilter/ipf.rules"

The firewall works but I get ipfilter already initialized in dmesg.

2. What is telling FreeBSD to start ipf when I don't have ipfilter_enabled
even in the rc.conf?
