Dear all, it seems that with FreeBSD 15 there is additional permission required to execute pfctl. With FreeBSD 14 I had in /etc/devfs.conf: own pf root:icinga perm pf 0640 this allowed the group icinga to use pfctl, but now I get: pfctl: Failed to open netlink: Bad file descriptor does anyone have a idea what additional change in FreeBSD 15 is required to allow a normal user to use pfctl to read information about the pf firewall? Thanks a lot! Matthiashelp
