I find netfilter superior in terms of capabilities, it has more extensions and it's technically superior to ipfw. It let you do things that you can't do with ipfw. But it's just an opinion, xBSD supporters would surely say otherwise. My advice: Try both and use the one that suits you better. You probably can look into other matters, as the routing capabilities of both systems. -- Jose Maria Lopez Hernandez Director Tecnico de bgSEC jkerouac@xxxxxxxxx bgSEC Seguridad y Consultoria de Sistemas Informaticos http://www.bgsec.com ESPAÃA The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles. -- Jack Kerouac, "On the Road"
