I recently set up an IPF firewall using the ruleset found in the FreeBSD
handbook.  I notice that when I attempt to replace the currently running
ruleset, my system (FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE) is unable to recognize the file
name.  For instance, the command, "ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf.rules" results in
"26: unknown words at end: [/], ipf: /etc/ipf.rules: parse error (1),
quitting."

The file command for /etc/ipf.rules returns "ASCII English text".

Didn't find any help with Google, or the archive mailing lists.
