I've just read the ipf security bulletin on Bugtraq, and I now need to
update ipf on all of my servers.

I would appreciate any help with the following couple of questions:

1. How can I find out if ipf is currently running as a module, or as
part of my kernel? I think that it is part of my kernel as I have the
following lines in the bottom of my config :
options IPFILTER
options IPFILTER_LOG

2. I understand that I have to recompile the kernel on all of my
servers to make this a module, but I'd rather not do a whole make
install process for ipfilter on each machine. Is there any way to
build it on one machine, and then farm that out to all the machines ?

Thanks in advance...
