Hi All Very new to FreeBSD and google has not proved helpful for once. Running 4.10Stable and I would like to allow traffic on port 20 on my server and I assumed /etc/rc.firewall was the place to do so. I added a line in the file in the same format as the rule allowing port 21 traffic but was not sure how to restart the firewall. #sh /etc/rc.firewall was a bad idea and totally shutdown all traffic. Can anyone point me to a clear resource on what I should do to start, stop and flush the port filter rules and whether or not I was working in the correct place to begin with. Thanks in advance Simon
