Hello,
Using ipfwadm on a 2.4.1 kernel, some ip accouting rules for outgoing
packets have theirs packet and byte counter stuck to 0 value. There is no
such problem with incoming packets.
For example try this one: ipfwadm -A out -a -W eth0 -S 0/0 -D 0/0
The included patch solves this problem (this was probably a typo).
I've only tested it with ipfwadm and with simple rules like the one above.
