Hi all: I've read the docs, FAQ, Handbook, searched the mailling and newsgroups and have not found what I need to resolve this problem. So here I am... I just installed 2.2.5-Release from CD-ROM. Everything installed fine. But I'm having problems with the ipfw stuff. Even though it's not enabled, ipfw is still 'deny all from any to any', which denies access to ping, traceroute, route etc. Enabling 'allow all from any to any' as a rule fixes this problem, but now I can't ping the router even though netstat -rn shows it to be the default gateway. I want to keep the firewall stuff enabled in the kernel and control it from ipfw, but it appears I'm missing something. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks, Mark
