Have you recompiled the kernel with FIREWALL logging enabled?
Then.. on your IPFWADM deny/reject lines, put a "-o". Now..
re-run your IPFWADM rulesets and check out your /var/adm/messages
file to see whats up.
BTW.. where did you get your IPFWADM Ruleset? There are
many out there and most are VERY good. Some don't work though.
