Please reference the www.fwbuilder.org website and mail list.  I don't 
know that answer to the issue above, but the author is very responsive 
to questions like this.  Please include the version of fwbuilder and os 
you are using when you post to the list.  In addition, the website has 
some cookbook examples of differing situations for using fwbuilder.
