While I suspect the core of pf on FreeBSD has diverged too much to keep the FreeBSD pf in sync with the OpenBSD pf [imo, and that's a shame], it would be most helpful if FreeBSD's pf.conf syntax and pf functionality were more closely aligned with what is currently happening with pf on OpenBSD. I run both OpenBSD and FreeBSD systems, and the pf differences are a drag..... _______________________________________________ freebsd-pf@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-pf To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-pf-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
