The following reply was made to PR conf/74610; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Matteo Riondato <rionda@gufi.org> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Cc: Ceri Davies <ceri@submonkey.net> Subject: Re: conf/74610: Hostname resolution failure causes firewall rules to stop loading Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2005 17:15:12 +0200 --nljfjKcp9HDtPSOP Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable According to rcorder -s nostart /etc/rc.d/* , named is started after ipfw rules have been loaded and IMHO, this is right and good. I think you should rely on /etc/hosts to have a hostname translated to an IP address at this point of the boot process. Perhaps this should be documented (where? ipfw(8) ? ) but then this would become a documentation related problem. Best Regards --=20 Rionda aka Matteo Riondato G.U.F.I.
