Is there a good example of a "normal" (somewhat lenient) set of rules for
IPFW?  I've messed around with 'firewall_type="OPEN"', and
'firewall_type="SIMPLE"', but there are some other things I'd like to add
to them...  I guess I could just add them into the /etc/rc.firewall file,
but is that a good way to alter your firewall rules or is there a better
way?
