Hi All,

pf has not worked well for me after version 8. Certain rules crash the
kernel
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=misc/182141). Avoiding
these rules gave me something that at least kept the system alive on a
10-CURRENT.

But since the RC versions my system stays up for only a few days,
before I need a reboot as network connectivity gets reset.

It's the modem (pppoe), every few minutes all tcp (?) connections get
dropped somehow. A reboot fixes it for a week or so.

I have no clue how to debug this.

But I'm getting pretty scared of pf, and going back to ipfw might seem
best.

What are people's thoughts on pf in FreeBSD, does it have a future?
Are there people working on pf? Should I simply forget about it, and
go back to ipfw?

All the best,

Berend de Boer
