If you still get it once you take away your ifconfig stuff then you'll
know that it was responsible. You haven't posted the actual lines you
use, so no-one is going to be able to figure out what might be
happening. Where you currently have
variable=`ifconfig interface | stuff`
or whatever, put
echo $variable
after it and you will see if you got it right or not. From what you've
said I think your stuff works fine when there is an ip address and
produces some junk when there isn't and you then feed that junk to an
ipfw rule which gives you the error.
