Dear All,

I have recently upgraded the 2.1.5 to 2.2.2. Everything seems to work fine
but a firewall.
Despite that I have enabled it in the kernel every time I issue ipfw
command it complains:

as /home/as> ipfw list
ipfw: getsockopt(IP_FW_GET): Invalid argument
as /home/as>

Other commands look the similar way (just the argument passed differs).

Could you suggest anything, please.

Yours, Alex.
