Cool, one thing about ipchains, is a couple of scripts called:
ipchains-save and
ipchains-restore
ipchains-save > filename # will save your current ipchains
# config to filename and
ipchains-restore < filename # restores it for you.
file format is *very* simple compared to ipfwadm IMHO & should be easier to
emulate than playing around with ipfwadm.
Just my 2c
