Firewall rules Mac OSX
What is the procedure for making firewall rules not reset after reboot in osx 10.5? I have used a startup script, but I was hoping to just be able to copy a file and have it stay the same after reboot. Thanks

I don't see a rc.conf in the /etc/ directory on 10.5

Open /etc/rc.conf file
# vi /etc/rc.conf
Append following settings:
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_script="/usr/loca
Step 2:
You need to paste your own script to /usr/local/etc/ipfw.rules or you can skip your old script and change it path in the Step 1 above
Good luck
