Hi Bruno and Guys/Gals

Sorry I have taken so long to reply but things got a little busy, but to
answer your questions.

sis0 is my external interface to the internet
wi0(wireless) and sis1 are my internal interface

I couldnt get your number 1,2,3 running without a bit more playing to see
what you are requesting but I cut and pasted the line from my log file that
shows IPFilter is actually blocking my nmap scan, it does this to internal
or external interfaces.

Feb 12 15:43:41 optusnet ipmon[58]: 15:43:41.261130 sis0 @0:4 b
c16410.fernt1.vic.optusnet.com.au[210.49.202.29],38664 ->
smarthome.smart.net.au[203.63.238.10],http PR tcp len 20 40 -A 2495610883
3240739687 4096 OUT

It gives certain info there but I have no idea what it means, but according
to someone else the reason for my scans being blocked out are because of my
"flags S" in my out line.  I have just tested this and confirmed this to be
true.

My problem now is that if I dont have this line there my state table fill's
up and I have to re-sync it, how do I get around this problem ??

I commented out the line "block out quick on sis0 from any to any" and it
made no difference.

Thanks for all your help

Matt.
