You need to recompile your kernel with the following options: options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=1000 (Change the value for IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT to suit your own needs). You also need to read the ipfw man page, and the bit of the handbook about ipfw at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-ipfw.html HTH, Dan -- Daniel Bye PGP Key: ftp://ftp.slightlystrange.org/pgpkey/dan.asc PGP Key fingerprint: D349 B109 0EB8 2554 4D75 B79A 8B17 F97C 1622 166A _ ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) - against HTML, vCards and X - proprietary attachments in e-mail / \
