How about RIP? I recently tried to upgrade my FreeBSD 4.0
bridging-firewall to CURRENT and I could no longer get RIP packets through
(reliably) (even with no rules and "DEFAULT_TOACCEPT") and had all kinds of
routing problems... Routers could not learn the route out because RIP was
not going through. Of course I backed back off to 4.0-RELEASE and life was
good again... I sent in a PR but have not heard anything yet.
Advice?
Thanks
