RE: 1.3.6[012] broke ipfw

Ok, I read now that net-tools no longer supports ipfw with kernels 1.6x+,
and that ipfwadm does. The latest ipfwadm states that ipfwadm -M only
works with the list option...

So the question is... For those of us that use IP masquerading, what are
the options now for adding masquerading rules to a 1.3.6+ kernel? (please
don't just say use 1.2.13... there are MANY wonderful enhancements to the
1.3.xx line...)

Thanks, Alex...

Not with 1.3.61++. ipfw will not support it.
