Hi,

I just discovered that pfsync needs the sync device to be numbered,
even if I simply try to use the multicast address and don't specify a
syncpeer. Not numbering it, but simply pulling it up, yielded (eg.)


# ifconfig pfsync0 syncdev ste3
ifconfig: SIOCSETPFSYNC: No buffer space available


In some emails regarding this issue, but pertaining to older versions
of OpenBSD, it was suggested that an unnumbered interface would do, and
I think that it should if one uses the multicast addresses, so I'd
suggest that this could be mentioned in the documentation (unless I hit
a bug, of course).

This is OpenBSD 4.4-stable.


Kind regards,
--Toni++
