Hello, I put OpenBSD 3.8 snapshot on an old DEC 500pws with pf.conf and it was okay on response. Then I redid my pf.conf with the tutorial by Jeff Hansteen posted a couple of days ago. Wow! what a difference. My DEC firewall is faster than snot loading up web pages. It is like I upgraded my ADSL to a faster speed. Beats my old Linksys router I was using before this. Thanks OpenBSD and Jeff. Best regards, rogern John 3:16
