I'm looking at illumos bug 3617 `ipf.conf requires a comment on the
first line to work', here:
https://www.illumos.org/issues/3617
I'm unable to reproduce the problem, using a group of valid ipf
statements either by themself or preceeded by a comment line or an
empty line. In all cases, ipf parses them without error.
The only way I could cause the error cited was with an ipf.conf that
contained only an empty line, like this:
$ touch /tmp/ipf4.conf
$ /usr/sbin/ipf -n -d -f /tmp/ipf4.conf
$ print $?
0
$ echo "" > /tmp/ipf5.conf
$ /usr/sbin/ipf -n -d -f /tmp/ipf5.conf
syntax error error at "", line 1
$ print $?
1
I'm wondering if the original cause was misinterpreted? Maybe this
bug report should be closed.
