I started with ipfw, and as a newbie to this whole unix stuff, firewall rules were cryptic. I had an open firewall for about 2 months then I heard about ipf. My question was how simple can rules be written. I came to find out, its damn easy. I now have a firewall/nat solution with ipf/ipnat where the rules are a little bit more like plain english. My 2cents........ Thanks Darren R, and the FBSD collective. _________________________________________ Steiny's Studio Pachyderm Productions http://steiny.hypermart.net mailto:info@steiny.hypermart.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
