So, everything I've read says that ipfw show displays rule number, packets caught, bytes matched, and rule. The problem I'm having is that it seems that the bytes, at least on some rules, is way out of whack. I'm capturing this data for cacti, and trying to display accumulated ipfw traffic. If I zero my counters and download a file via FTP, the downloaded sizes don't even compare. 61MB into the download, if I convert the ipfw show from the supposed bytes into MB, it says I've downloaded 155MB. Please help me understand this! Thanks! ----- Eric F Crist Secure Computing Networks
