I'm getting the same error. Ran kldstat -v | grep ipf & got back "206 ipfw". Just learning about it, so had to guess that the 206 is the PID. Ran ps x | grep ipfw & got "344 v0 S+". Then I ran ps x | grep 206 & got "206 ?? Is 0:00:02 inetd -wW". Trying to find out if it's not loading right. I have everything compiled into the kernel for IPFW support that's required, so not sure what the problem is, unless something's broken from cvsup, which I did about a week & a half ago with no apparent ill results at the time. Everything made & installed without any errors. Only time consuming was in having to manually merge several files, including rc.conf.
