NetBSD acervavb 4.0_BETA2 NetBSD 4.0_BETA2 (GENERIC_LAPTOP) #0: Mon Jun 25 23:16:48 PDT 2007  builds@wb30:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4/i386/200706250002Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC_LAPTOP i386

>Description:
"ipf -f rules" does not work.
It prints error on each line of used file.
I tried it on my desktop with GENERIC kernel and on my notebook with GENERIC-LAPTOP kernel.

This is the first message i got ...
1:ioctl(add/insert rule): Input/output error

other lines print the same error...

"ipf -F o" prints this message ...
ioctl(SIOCIPFFL): Input/output error

I have never tried ipf on NetBSD, so it can be caused by absence of necessary informations in my head :]
