Rodney W. Grimes <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Keywords| |regression --- Comment #1 from Rodney W. Grimes <[email protected]> --- I concur that this is in fact a bug in the /etc/rc.firewall script. It is NOT a bug in the documentation. The documentation is correct, the behavior of the script is wrong. I suggest that the "mandatory" stuff that is always done is simply wrong to be always done, if in fact a file type script is being invoked I may very much want those "mandatory" rules in a different place and shall be allowed to do so. Further this is a change in past behavior causing a POLA violation. Had I been using firewall_type rather than firewall_script to point to my custom firewall this would of bit me too, and in not very pleasant ways. Besides, they are not actually mandatory from anything I can even remotely imagine. Technically you should even be able to remove lo0, but *sigh* that has also degerated over the years, as has hard coded 127.0.0.1 and ::1, which is a royal PITA for some. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
