That sorta makes sense if your firewall was working as a bridge, but I

Was/Is your machine acting as a nat-style firewall? If so, then
you'll have to assign it some IPs.
How long was it running since its last reboot? Were the IP settings
done manually via the console but never reflected in the
/etc/hotname.dc* files?

Hello, I was running a DEC Alpha firewall, just as a firewall for my
internal network. I created the pf.conf as on the OpenBSD small office
example without a problem.
A problem I had was to make sure you have your arp address on the
firewall from the clients connecting.
Another thing I had was when the firewall went down due to power
failure the pf.conf would not run. I went to a backup pf.conf and it
would work. I don't know why this would happen but it did.
I guess have a backup pf.conf on the firewall and probably backed up
to another machine. Also have physical access to the firewall if you
are unable to connect remotely.
Also check other network conf files like resolv.conf
Hope this give you some assistance.
