Surely the question depends on a lot... Is the target hungry? Do they like red/green/yellow or orange more? What is the current phase of the moon? So, "ipfw or ipf?" Surely this question also depends on a lot. Read the man pages, and decide for yourself! I encourage this, because most people I know that have used both walk away saying "there are reasons to use both" and not "I love X and Y sucks." If there was no reason for ipf, I doubt it would have been developed. If there was no reason for ipfw, I doubt it would be maintained and updated (ipfw2). I've also heard some untrue statements here, which once again points to the need to read the man page. Also, perhaps the authors of the code should refrain from comment so long as it's simply "mine is better." ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
