I have always written my own firewall rules into their own shell script
and launch it from from /etc/rc.local
You could just add
/etc/rc.firewall client
to /etc/rc.local and do away with any of the traditional stuff in
rc.conf
well, I ended up moving all my firewall commands from /etc/rc.firewall into
rc.local like you suggested and it works fine now.. Strange that it
suddenly stopped working from inside rc.firewall.. I even tried disabling
pretty much everything from rc.conf except for the pertinent firewall lines,
and it still wouldn't execute any of my firewall commands.
Oh well, at least it's working now.. If anyone has any other suggestions of
what to try, please let me know, otherwise I'll just leave it at that.
Thanks,
Mike
