Subject:   rc.firewall and dhclient under 3.4

I'm building a home firewall (with FreeBSD V3.4) that I plan to connect to TW 
Road Runner (If I can talk my wife into the $$$.)

I have most of the basic stuff running in a prototype mode in my den (with 
another FreeBSD machine (V3.2) running as the DHCP server.)

Looking at rc.firewall, the design appears to assume that you have a static 
IP address.  Since I have to use ISC dhclient to connect to Road Runner the 
"oip" value may change from time to time.

If there is a way to change rc.firewall so it can work with changing 'outside 
IP addesses' I have not found it.

Any suggestions or best practices?
Cheers...
