So, the question becomes, does configuring ipfw into the kernel change the >behavior of NMBCLUSTERS or reset it somewhere? netstat -m reports current/peak. The 'current' should shrink as expected, and the peak will indicate the most that have been in-use at one time since the system was booted. Does this answer your question? netstat in -current reports current/peak/max and is thus easier to figure out how many are actually configured (max). -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
