Then change the value in the /etc/rc.conf to the path and name of your copy, like this firewall_script="/etc/rc.ipfw" providing you named the file rc.ipfw. If it is your ip you are setting then yes, change it. rc.firewall will tell you for example mine has this: # set these to your network and netmask and ip net="192.0.2.0" mask="255.255.255.0" ip="192.0.2.1" so in that case you should.

I don't see instructions in there for me to edit the /etc/rc.firewall, but I was looking at that file, and it includes ip addresses that do not match my actual ip address, netmask, etc. For instance, it says ip is 192.0.0.1. Do I need to change these values to match my actual fxp0 values? I would think the O'Reilly would tell me if I needed to change those values, but it doesn't. I would also think that those values should match the actual values, but they don't. Can someone help me out here?
