Argh, things have gone from bad to worse.

So I rebooted the machine on a whim, thinking that maybe the network
debacle from earlier could be cleared up by a simple reboot.  No go.
And now, if pf is enabled, no traffic can flow anywhere.  If it's
disabled, the machine acts simply as a bridge.

I am obviously in over my head here.  I have not used OpenBSD
extensively in the past.  I have used FreeBSD and ipfw, so I am
familiar with the general concepts of *nix systems and firewalls.  All
I want if for traffic to flow from the outside world to the switch and
servers beyond accoridng to the rules laid out in pf, and to be able
to access the machine via ssh.  Whether or not it is configured as a
bridge is not important to me.  Can anyone hold my hand on how to
effectively bring this about, or point me to a simple guide to
configuring a basic firewall with OpenBSD?  Thanks again for all the
help today.
