Thanks for your help, Michael.

Knowing so little about ipfw, I think it will be time to raise my 
learning curve on it. Can you hint me where I can get more information 
on nub level? Especially the remark Michael made

"The lifetime of dynamic rules is, by default, way too long."

intriques me. What is the exact result shortening them? Do I undermine 
ipfw protection by giving it too less or too much time to check incoming 
requests?

Best, Jos
