What does 'ipfw list' show? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wayne Pascoe" <freebsd-questions@penguinpowered.org> Subject: Logging and IPFW > Hi all, > > We're moving from ipfilter to ipfw.

Add to this the problems we've had when running it as a > module on 5.x (as opposed to compiled into the kernel), and we've > decided to move to ipfw. > > I'm trying to setup logging with IPFW.
