Yes, you're right concerning the man-page. But that was not the reason for my problems. I changed the cluster-IDs but nothing has changed. As I've mentioned before, I have no problems concerning bridging. With 'sh /etc/rc.firewall open', all networking is up 'n running. Therefor I think that ipfw (or myself) has problems. But I don't think that I've made a larger mistake - 'allow icmp any to any' should make pinging work, don't it? > Have you remembered to set vlan0 and vlan1's parent interface into > promiscous mode? Yes, I checked it again, fxp0 and fxp1 *are* in promiscous mode. Seems to be automagic because of the bridging - I did no 'ifconfig' to set the interfaces explicitly into promiscous mode but they are... Anyway - thanks a lot! I'm trying to check this ipfw behaviour with another bridging machine with FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE and ipfw1 next week - perhaps there is any difference, perhaps even not... -- Ciao/BSD - Matthias Matthias Schuendehuette , Berlin (Germany) PGP-Key at and ID: 0xDDFB0A5F
