Both the ipfw man page and the 5.3 Errata indicate that debug.mpsafenet must be set to 0 to prevent a system lock when using this rule option. Will setting debug.mpsafenet to 0 impact anything else on the box? A quick googling shows it could impact performance on SMP machines, but this is a uniproc box. Anything else I should keep an eye on? Thanks, Bryan
