Hi List, I have a FreeBSD 4.7(i386) Release router I am trying to make it run with the ipf firewall on. I have compiled and installed a new kernel with ipf support and then I put the following lines inside my rc.conf file: ... ipfilter_enable="YES" ipfilter_program="/sbin/ipf -Fa -f" ipfilter_rules="/etc/ipf.rules" ipfilter_flags="" ... The problem is that, when I boot, ipf does not work. It seems like is not using the rules. If I enter "ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules" from the command line, then it starts working as expected. What do I have to do to make ipf start automatically on boot? Any tips or pointers to manuals will be greatly appreciated. TIA, Jim Xochellis Escape Information Services P.S.Note that I am running with security level set to 2. (I also tried running with security level set to 1 and -1 without any luck.)
