in http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/dialup-firewall/kernel.html, it is explained what options to add to your kernel before recompiling to enable things like firewall support, and IP stack restrictions like TCP_RESTRICT_RST. in the next page, http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/dialup-firewall/rcconf.html, you mention that you have to modify /etc/rc.conf to enable those options, but it is not mentioned that if you actually used the additional options like TCP_RESTRICT_RST in your kernel you still have to also turn them on in /etc/rc.conf. it would probably be nice to mention that on that second page -- one of my friends pointed out i needed to do a little additional work in /etc/rc.conf to enable the new SYN options in my kernel, instead of me finding out from this tutorial. just a suggestion, thanks for your time. ;) yossman To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
