Hi there.

195.249.122.1 = FreeBSD 2.2.6
195.249.122.2 = Win98
195.184.60.2 = DNS 

Why is it that when I set "ipfw add deny all from 195.249.122.2 to 195.249.122.1" I'm still able to ppp to 195.249.122.1 from to the computer I just denied?? If I ping 195.249.122.1 from 195.249.122.2 it says "request timed out" as it should, but when I do anything that has something to do with ppp the modem just dials as usual & everything "works". Why is that? Isn't "deny all" suposed to filter out all packets from 195.249.122.2 letting nothing through?
- thanx up ahead!
