Hello.
I noticed that when I issue "sh /etc/rc.firewall" to reload firewall
rules from a remote console, I get disconnected (as I would expect) and
locked out!
The problems seems to be that "ipfw -f" prints: "command is /usr/local/...".
This is in /usr/src/sbin/ipfw/ipfw2.c:
fprintf(stderr, "command is %s\n", av[0]);
This line does not onor the "-q" flag which, if I understand correctly,
was exactly meant to allow this kind of operations without console access.
Naturally, I can comment this line in my sources, but I was asking
myself if this should be regarded as something to fix.
bye & Thanks
av.
