However, you only need to set debug.mpsafenet to 0, if you use the "group" and/or "user" filter parameters in your pf.conf. If you don't need filtering of user/groups, just leave debug.mpsafenet out of your loader.conf and it's okay. However, I depend on user/group filtering and had to set debug.mpsafenet too, so I get the same warning at bootup. I really don't see any noticeable problems with performance in cause of that, so you are safe to leave it in. The warning-message is not so bad as it seems, just don't worry. HTH, Frank
