Thanks! Yes, the ipfw.ko module is getting loaded. So now I just need to know how to enable things like divert and logging.
/etc/rc.firewall has examples.
I looked at that. That's not what I mean. :) I mean, if I do not have to build a new kernel to enable firewalling, logging and divert, then how do I enable them, such that the following line from my messages file would show that they have been enabled?
Adding firewall_enable="YES" to rc.conf caused the ipfw module to be loaded, enabling firewalling. Adding firewall_logging="YES" did *not* enable logging in the message file line shown below. How do I do that? How would I get that line to show divert as being enabled? I may be wrong (correct me if I am, please), but doesn't that line have to show them as enabled, before I can successfully make use of them in ipfw commands like those you pointed me to in rc.firewall? What if I want that line to report that the default is open, instead of deny?
