Dear Beno,
As others already have stated a couple of times, make sure you entirely
read what the information tells you. There can only be one default line.
You have three. Which is not quite the same as you will also be able to
tell.
Please remove the subqueue default's and test it with pfctl -n -f
/etc/pf.conf to see whether there are any other rules.
Btw: you forgot one important step; show the error you are facing,
this most likely can help you a lot more then just spitting out some
information and have us figure out the rest.
So again: one default means one default, and not more (not even in
subqueue's since they are inherited from the main queue and inherit
the default, it is already used).
Hope this helps, now go read the documentation and solve your problem.
Remko
