I am comparing it to other firewalls I have worked with.. e.g
Sidewinder Firewall by Secure Computing, Netscreen, Sonicwall, Symantec, etc.

The issue I am referring to more specifically is how the logs identify a problem in the configuration... here is an output of me restarting my firewall and the log's output:

Mar 27 18:39:41 www servermgrd[7911]: servermgr_ipfilter:ipfw config:Notice:Flushed IPv4 rules
Mar 27 18:39:41 www servermgrd[7911]: servermgr_ipfilter:ipfw config:Error:Failure code returned by ipfw/ip6fw command: 64, message: 'Line 29: unrecognised option [-1] from\n\n'
Mar 27 18:39:41 www servermgrd[7911]: servermgr_ipfilter:ipfw config:Error:The invalid rule and all subsequent IPv4 rules were skipped.
Mar 27 18:39:44 www servermgrd[7911]: servermgr_ipfilter:ipfw config:Notice:Disabled firewall
Mar 27 18:39:45 www servermgrd[7911]: servermgr_ipfilter:ipfw config:Notice:Enabled firewall

Nowon the second and third line, I get errors. It say look in Line 29. I have no idea where Line 29 is located. In any other hardware platform firewalling system, I would have a GUI that I could see what rule that is and how to fix it. With my Mac Server - Notice I put Mac instead of MAC for Dhan ;) - I don't know whee to find this error in the rule and how to fix it.

So I guess in a general sense, I do like the Mac Server Software I just think little tweaks that help aid the dummies such as myself would be nice.

Thanks for all the help guys, I appreciate it.

If the Server tool isn't good enough, then what did you have in mind
that you're comparing it to?

Why don't you tell us what you're trying to do?
