Any ongoing effort to port /etc/rc.d/pf_boot, /etc/pf.boot.conf from NetBSD ?

	I did this yesterday, but this thread has gotten quite active
	so maybe you lost the results. But my findings were same as
	yours: pf is enabled before routing which means that the 	
	hole I was afraid of doesn't exist.

	Yes, and it might be quite common: some edits ruleset but
	leaves it unfinished because other, more high-priority
	jobs arrive (from boss...) and the someone other accidentally
	reboots your firewall... Default deny (or rc.d/pf_boot) would
	help here.
