/sbin/ipfw -q add 00001 allow ip from 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.1 via lo0 ========= I usually configure tyhe firewall in /etc/rc.firewall. when I modify firewall rules on the remote servers I responsible of, first I make a copy of rc.firewall, say, rc.firewall.new and make all necessary changes in _this_ file, then I run "shutdown -r +5min" and only after that I execute /etc/rc.firewall.new # /etc/rc.firewall.new nohup & if it's alright and I'm still there on the server I just kill the shutdown process, if not, the machine reboots with the old rules...
