Hi!
First, thanks for the pointers... But I'm still having problems.
I've done an unpack and install on mirror-2.8-0.deb (that's the version

matter of fact, that directory didn't even exist). There's also no

No dpkg-ftp provides a 'ftp' method for dselect.

I have succeeded in making ipfw going by doing 2 things:

To do this, I set these networking options (all other networking options
were not set, i.e., their value=n).
