Hello!
I've tried to block users from surfing the web, once they have moved a certain amount 
of traffic per week.
I put a series of "count" rules in ipfw and let cron call a script every 5 minutes to 
read the associeted byte counter
and possibly insert "deny" rules *after* the count rules.
The problem is that the traffic still goes through: the counters of the deny rules are 
all 0, as though they
were never reached.
ipfw's manual page states that after a count the packet goes ahead in the rule chain 
as if nothing has happened, but at
this points I'm beginning to wonder wether this is true or wether the count rules also 
allow traffic through as if they
were "pass".
This on FreeBSD 4.7-p3.

 bye & Thanks
        av.
