Re: Any OpenPF update ?

Well, OpenPF or more correctly PF is the new Packet Filter of OpenBSD.
IPF has been removed from the -current branch (for license reasons) and
replaced with PF which is much more integrated w/ the kernel. The syntax
is very similar. You are welcome to test it and report back bugs.

IMHO, PF is not ready for production boxes. The basic functionnality is
there but I'd wait. Undoubtless it'll kick ass on 3.0.

Cheers
