Which IIRC is the same as shipped with OpenBSD 3.6.
3.7 in RELENG_6, 3.5 in RELENG_5, 4.1 in what is to become RELENG_7. > > What are the options to update PF?

There are also patches for RELENG_6 to update to 4.1 pf, but given your inexperience with compilation that might not be the best choice for you. In any case, they are at: http://people.freebsd.org/~mlaier/PF41/ with instructions. If this box can take a downtime once in a while (i.e. not 100% mission critical) and you are interested in helping, then consider running the latest CURRENT. It is in good shape and has the newest pf (4.1). Just grab a snapshot or compile from source. -- /"\ Best regards, | [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News
