ipfwadm doesn't work. 2.1.x kernels (later than 98 I think...I am not sure
since when) use a completely differnt way of working.
The new command is ipchains and is completely differnt...
for a quick and easy cheat... there is ipfwadm-wrapper
heres the manpage snippit:
DESCRIPTION
Ipfwadm-wrapper emulates the behaviour of ipfwadm. You can
use this wrapper to use your old ipfwadm firewall rules
with ipchains. See ipfwadm(8) for more details.
both are found on my debian system as part of netbase
