10.5: Use a custom firewall in 10.5 with ipfw
Authored by: gakhular on Nov 27, '07 09:53:59PM

I've been trying in my spare time for the last couple of days to get your original hints to work. I dragged ipfwloggerd over from my Tiger system and it seems to work. After I run the firewall startup script in the terminal, entries start showing up in the firewall log.

To make the script automatic I put a plist entry in /Library/LaunchDaemons patterned after yours, but modified for my file locations. syslog seems to indicate that the commands are executed OK, but the firewall logger dies for some reason:

Nov 27 20:42:35 iGlenn com.apple.launchd[1] (glenn.ipfw[1579]): Stray process with PGID equal to this dead job: PID 1581 PPID 1 ipfwloggerd

Any ideas?

Glenn
