You honestly spat that back at me in = minutes. I have actually been reading through some of your articles = since then.

I was just hoping I could lock down my ports easily while= I read and read and read. All well, now I definitely have a place to = start. I'm about to check out any related links from freebsd.org, but = perhaps you could guide me to some good info/faqs/tutorials on setting up= ipfw in Free? Nothing too complicated needed.
