You'll almost certainly want to use the -p flag if you do this. There's
probably no harm in doing it if you want to, but you'd have to use ipfw
too if you want only to expose some services on one side of the machine.
(ie. If you have a router running an inetd on the "inside" interface
then someone on the outside can send packets to the outside interface
but addressed to the address of the inside interface and get a response).
