Hi all: I have strange probelm with rc.conf. I set up ipfw (compiled into kernel) on freebsd-5.4 and it doesn't seem to load ipfw rulesets (it uses default ruleset 65335 locking out everything). I have to do sh /etc/ipfw.rules in order to load the rulesets, once I did that, I can access the box

Thanks. I don't think it was the problem of ipfw rulesets. In fact once I did sh /etc/ipfw.rules and things are fine. I just cant figure out why the rc.conf won't load the rulesets. Besides, I recompiled the customized kernel and there is no need for firewall_enable=YES statement in rc.conf.

Besides, I recompiled the customized kernel and there is no need for firewall_enable=YES statement in rc.conf. Yes, there is. Just because it's compiled in, doesn't mean it's turned on. And since /etc/defaults/rc.conf has 'firewall_enable=NO ' in it, it specifically is turned off. ~Dan --

Your problem is you have rc.conf loading 2 different firewalls at same time. IPFW which is compiled into your kernel as firewall and ipfilter which you have rc.conf starting. You don't need to compile either one of the firewalls into the kernel to work. You need to read the firewall section of
