I've wondered this for some time now.. kern.securelevel defaults to 0
on i386, but 1 on sparc. why is this so?
with ipf built as an LKM,
# ipf -E
SIOCFRENB: Invalid argument
ipf -E is called from /etc/rc.d/ipfilter.
Obviously once the module is loaded, it's activated, but this could
cause confusion for people expecting ipf -D to disable it.
thoughts?
