I was seeing something similar on my own box which I just upgraded from a 150-day-old RELENG_6 to present RELENG_6. pfctl -s rules output no rules. pfctl -s info showed packet counters, but no interface stats (due to the rules not being loaded, e.g. no loginterface). kldstat showed pflog.ko and pf.ko loaded. If I did /etc/rc.d/pf start, the rules would loaded, and everything starts working as expected. I rebooted the box and saw the following on serial console, which I'm pretty sure is what's responsible for the breakage: Enabling pf. Oct 3 04:14:51 pflogd[374]: [priv]: msg PRIV_OPEN_LOG received cannot determine interface bandwidth for bge0, specify an absolute bandwidth altq not defined on bge0 altq not defined on bge0 /conf/ME/pf.conf:52: errors in queue definition altq not defined on bge0 /conf/ME/pf.conf:53: errors in queue definition altq not defined on bge0 /conf/ME/pf.conf:54: errors in queue definition pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded pf enabled I'd recommend you check your kernel console log on boot-up and see if anything is showing up there. I'm about to go digging to find out what's wrong with my ALTQ rules. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
