OK, I will ask again....

I have a file called flist, generated by doing ipfw list > /fwlist , this
creates a text file containing the current firewall rules. I have a crontab run
a script that calls this every hour, (we have a dynamic set of firewall rules
based on circumstances - but this is besides the point) and this works fine.

Now when I reboot, I start with a real basic set of firewall rules, the
defaults actually. What I want to do is to configure the firewall based apon
the list (fwlist) on reboot.....

How and the hell do I do this......is it even possible.....if not fine, at
least I wont go nuts anymore, if it is HOW.....

Yes, I have read the ipfw man page, I have read rc.firewall and am still
lost....please give me a hand here...
