	Try these rules for ipfwadm right from my /etc/init.d/netbase on
my home computer:

echo "Flush tables..."
ipfwadm -I -f
ipfwadm -O -f

echo -n "Setting incoming filters: "
ipfwadm -I -p deny
# ICMP
echo -n "ICMP "
ipfwadm -I -a deny -b -o -P icmp -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D 0.0.0.0/0

# FTP
echo -n "ftp "
ipfwadm -I -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D 0.0.0.0/0 20
ipfwadm -I -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D 0.0.0.0/0 21

# SSH
echo -n "ssh "
ipfwadm -I -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 -D 0.0.0.0/0 22

	That should work for you... will only allow FTP and SSH
connections to ports 20-22 while all Outgoing traffic would be able to go
out without a problem... You could expand this to any other service by
duplicating the lines and changing the port number.
