it was "pfctl -d"

[Gary Kline]

	well, beforestarting over from scratch with the FBSD dvd, i
	tried the pc-bsd website and forum.  the voodoo string, as
	root, is "pfctl -d" [i assume that  the `-d' == disable.  by
	default the pf firewall was on.  my fault for not having
	checked /etc/rc.conf here on "zen" {thinkpad} more carefully.

	i probably Will install our iso in a day or two. now that i
	can scp my environment, i want to see what this distro can
	do.
