Yes, I am using it.

Just download and uncompress the CSV GeoIP version and do something like
this (example for Czech Republic IPs):

grep Czech GeoIPCountryWhois.csv | awk 'BEGIN { FS="," } { print $1"-"$2
}' | sed 's/"//g' | tableutil -q text > /etc/pf.czech_net.table

tableutil is from ports (net/tableutil)

So all Czech IPs are in /etc/pf.czech_net.table which is loaded in to
pf.conf byt this line:
table <czech_net> persist file "/etc/pf.czech_net.table"
Then you can do what ever you whant with these IP addresses (block /
pass / redirect...)

Thanks for your help this really great!, you made my day :)

I was also surfing the net and found this interesting Debian HOWTO
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/518

Another question, how about the update per month? do I need to kill pf
and run it again? or a crontab would do the trick and update the IPs?
