Description Matt Mills 2003-03-02 10:20:13 UTC 
Every recent version of the ipfw man page I've looked at has had this same
(possible) mistake. According to my dictionary, 'legitimate' isn't a verb.

Fix: 

s/legitimate/legitimize (?)
How-To-Repeat: Search the ipfw man page for 'legitimate' and you should see the
sentence, "These dynamic rules, which have a limited lifetime,
are checked at the first occurrence of a check-state, keep-state or limit
rule, and are typ-ically used to open the firewall on-demand to legitimate
traffic only."

Eeek. I just realised I totally misread the sentence in question. Not sure
how to go about having this PR removed - can someone take care of it?

Apologies,
