cvsup kills /etc/ipf.rules !?

[Yaraghchi, Stephan]

Hi fellows,

I was running cvsup on a FBSD 4.9-RELEASE #5 box
with the following supfile:

*default host=cvsup6.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_9
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all

when suddenly all ip connections broke down.

Further investigation turned up that /etc/ipf.rules
somehow disappeared.
Since the default stance in the kernel file is set to
deny all the box reacted as expected, though.

Any ideas?


Stephan.
