Strange little trick...glad it works! But unless I (again) missed something, that still doesn't address how to deal with the CIDR/netmask problem: directv_ip_addresses="69.19.0.0/17" where (apparently) the parser doesn't like that "/". I tried escaping it directv_ip_addresses="69.19.0.0\/17" but that didn't work either. It would be great if we could do something like this: directv_ip_addresses="69.19.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0" or whatever, but no go. So, what to do? Again, the fact that this is a *known problem* that *hasn't* been fixed gives every indication that there's a workaround :) Max Laier wrote this last week: That's a well-known problem in the pfctl-parser. Patches have been proposed but never made it to the tree - afaik. Look in the archives of this and the original ML for reasons and detailed discussion. Unfortunately, googling my best I couldn't find anything in either list on the subject. TIA, beno
