RESET FIREWALL WITHOUT REBOOT
hello group I need to know how to stop and start my firewall rules without resetting my computer as I am on ADSL and have a dynamic ip that I do not want to change. seems to change mostly when I reboot mostly. so here is the dilemma I run bind apache bincimap postfix and a few others it is my only server right now and it cant go down because if I do not get my clients emails I go bankrupt. I what to set up a firewall and have compiled the necessary items into the kernel did this when I first set up my system many reboots ago options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPDIVERT I have created a file called rc.fw4 and I have set my rc.conf #ipv4 firewall firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=/etc/rc.fw4 firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall firewall_quiet=NO IS THERE A WAY ACTIVATE ALL THIS WITHOUT A REBOOT ALSO IS THERE A WAY DE-ACTIVATE ALL THIS WITHOUT A REBOOT IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG WHICH USUALLY DOES WITH MY FIREWALL RULES www.computerking.ca QUALITY and SERVICE first. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That way if I couldn't do anything, in 10 minutes everything would be reset. If everything worked, it let me cancel the at. I called it clnipfw and it looks like # cat clnipfw #! /bin/sh ipfw -f flush ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ep0 ipfw add pass all from any to any -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
