I've never bothered looking at that, coz early on I set up some scripts to handle fw script distribution and it's always worked so well I've never needed to check out fwbd. If you've got key-based SSH authentication from your machine to your firewall box, a distribution script can be as trivial as: #!/bin/sh afile=firewall1.fw scp $afile [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/firewall/ echo "SCPd $afile to firewall1" ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/firewall/firewall1.fw echo "Executed new firewall script" List that as the installation script in the firewall profile in fwbuilder and you're set for point-n-click activation.
