Dear mailing list,
Having recently upgraded my firewall machines to FreeBSD 6.2 I am
experiencing the very same phenomena concerning the OOW. The issue is
particularly annoying since it breaks upgrading of the FreeBSD ports in
some cases by simply hanging the download.
Could someone describe the steps to download, apply the patches for
FreeBSD, and install a newer version than the one shipped with FreeBSD6.2?
Grateful for any help, Thanks In Advance,
Greetings
/Roger

I run ipfilter on FreeBSD 6.1 (intel), using the RELENG_6_1 CVS branch.
On the whole it's pretty solid, but sometimes traffic is blocked due to
OOW errors, and the website www.activestate.com hangs unless I plug
outside the firewall.
So I guess it's time to update the firewall software.
I could do an in-place update from FreeSD 6.1 to 6.2, but presumably the
ipfilter in 6.2 is not really new enough. Or, are all the important
fixes been included in RELENG_6_2 now?
So: What is the recommended way to update ipfilter on FreeBSD?
Thanks for any pointers!
- Martin.
