How to manually start firewall after system completed boot.
I have special purpose situation where I need to wait until the boot process has completed the starting of the system and then start the firewall (ipfw or pf). Commenting out the firewall statements from the hosts /etc/rc.conf does stop the firewall from starting at boot time. Is there some format of the service command that could be used to manually start the selected firewall? Any ideas on how to accomplish this is welcome.

The boot process, as used here, is simply a series of calls to various scripts in /etc/rc.d ... any of which can (theoretically) be invoked by itself. The details of this may be important; _please_ do more research before blowing yourself up. :-) Robert Huff ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

You can use onestart/onestop if the service is not enabled in rc.conf. service pf onestart or /etc/rc.d/pf onestart Regard ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

How about the rc.d framework? # /etc/rc.d/ipfw start Or # service ipfw start Both will honor the firewall_type= setting in /etc/rc.conf (here: for IPFW). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
