Yes, that's the other way of doing it. The mentioning of scripts and the
fact that his file was in the form of a script made me assume that he
wanted to write his own script for setting up his firewall. On second
thought I realize that he might just as well want to do it your way and
define a set of rules to be read in by rc.firewall. (This might even be
the best solution).
I've never done it this way, but in this case I assume that you just
define the rules in '/etc/ERICS_firewall', thus:
--------------
add 100 pass all from any to any via lo0
add 200 deny all from any to 127.0.0.0/8
add 300 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any
add 600 allow all from any to any
--------------
Using your suggestions for rc.conf, of course.
Is this correct?
