Folks, Sorry, I haven't looked at how the discussion on freebsd-ipfw is going on ;-) but I can tell for myself that I consider having this "bug" in ipfw very useful. I use it often when I have to add some rules to a firewall temporarily and then remove them after a while. I add the temporary rules with the same rule number and then just type "ipfw d <number>" once instead of having to remove each rule separately, which would be the case if the "bug" were "fixed". OTOH, thou shouldst abstain from messing with ipfw while having the morning cloudiness in thy mind and tremor in thy hands ;-))) Therefore I vote for closing this PR after making sure the current behaviour is well documented on the ipfw(8) manpage. -- Yar _______________________________________________ freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
