The "simple" set of rules will bump you into lots of issues, specially if you have a "deny all from any to any" at the end. I don't particularly like the open firewall setting (i.e. allow anything which is not trapped by a rule) because this may lead to open holes which one may not be aware. Good luck! Now that you got that working is only the beginning... To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
