Hello.

The following rule:

# Reject&Log all setup of incoming connections from the outside
    $fwcmd add 300 deny log tcp from any to any in via ${oif} setup

is causing pop3 (when sending msgs) and IRC (when connecting; port 6667)
take too long to connect

I get messages like this on the console:

ipfw: 300 Deny tcp 209.104.220.13:4737 200.246.0.15:113 in via tun0


is it expected ? (I don't see why... My TCP/IP skills are not that good)

In case it is, is there any workaround for this delay ?
