well i am not that experienced in IPMASQ but i know that you want
ipfwadm -F -p deny as your default policy because otherwise other people
can get in and make it look like you are doing what they are doing.. then
what you do is use other options with the ipfwadm to allow certain
addresses on your netowrk.

if i am wrong about this someone please respond .. i need to know .. and i
dont need ppl blaming me with things i wasnt shure of ..

thanx
Dave
