The first "succeeds" without sudo:
% /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --add /usr/libexec/bootpd
Application at path ( /usr/libexec/bootpd ) added to firewall
But then the next command fails:
% /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --unblock /usr/libexec/bootpd
The application is not part of the firewall
Running the first command with sudo works:
% sudo /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --add /usr/libexec/bootpd
Application at path ( /usr/libexec/bootpd ) added to firewall
% /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --unblock /usr/libexec/bootpd
Incoming connection to the application is permitted
It looks like Apple bug, the first command should fail if the
application was not added to the firewall.
