Anyone can explain one possible cause for the following error:

  ~> ipfw adda bidirectional all from 0/0 to 0/0 via 194.21.207.250
  ipfw: setsockopt failed.
  ~>

Of course my kernel config contains:

     options         IPFIREWALL              #firewall
     options         IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE      #.....
     options         IPACCT                  #Accounting

Is there something other to setup before trying the ipfw command ? The man 
page is rather sparse if you are not yet experienced with this topic.

Thanks in advance.
