Greetings all!
I am building a new FreeBSD box for a firewall. The last one was running
3.4.31 so I guess it was time. <grin>
I get this set of messages (new to me) when I am booting:
Enabling ipfilter
361:ioctl(add/insert rule):File exists
423:ioctl(add/insert rule):File exists
703:ioctl(add/insert rule):File exists
1:ioctl(add/insert rule):File exists
ioctl(SIOCIPFL6): Invalid argument
Installing NAT rules.
0 entries flushed from NAT table
0 entries flushed from NAT list
I am concerned that lines 2 through 6 are errors, but my attention is
obviously drawn to the last one of the set of errors since it says "Invalid
argument". I can't find this on the list and Google was not my friend, so I
thought I would ask you fine folks if my ship was sinking.
What exactly is ipfilter telling me, do I need to be worried and what can I
do to get a clean boot?
Thanks for your help!
