Thanks :) My changed rule file looks like this: ----start file ipfw.rules----------- #!/bin/sh /sbin/ipfw -q -f flush cmd="/sbin/ipfw add " # build rule prefix ks="keep-state" # just too lazy to key this each time /sbin/ipfw add 1 allow tcp from any to any established ##################################### $cmd 00500 check-state $cmd 00502 deny all from any to any frag #$cmd 00501 deny tcp from any to any established $cmd 00602 allow tcp from 20x.xx.xx.xx/32 to any 22 in via ed0 $ks $cmd 00603 allow tcp from 20x.xx.xx.xx/32 to any 22 in via ed0 $ks $cmd 00604 allow all from 20x.xx.xx.xx/32 to any out via ed0 $ks $cmd 00609 allow tcp from 22x.xx.0.0/16 to any 22 in via ed0 $ks $cmd 00610 allow icmp from 22x.xx.0.0/16 to any in via ed0 $ks $cmd 00611 allow tcp from 220.xx.0.0/16 to any 22 in via ed0 $ks $cmd 00612 allow icmp from 220.xx.0.0/16 to any in via ed0 $ks $cmd 02500 divert 8000 log tcp from any to any 80 $cmd 02501 allow tcp from any to any 80 in via ed0 $ks ##################################### /sbin/ipfw delete 1 ----end file ipfw.rules----------- Even if I run this script as it is (without running from within another script and redirecting), I don't get disconnected.
