Do like I do and rename the interfaces in /etc/rc.early $ cat /etc/rc.early /sbin/ifconfig fxp0 name admin /sbin/ifconfig em0 name external /sbin/ifconfig em1 name internal Then, just use those names everywhere (/etc/rc.conf, /etc/pf.conf, etc..) Interface renaming makes your life much much easier. -- othermark atkin901 at nospam dot yahoo dot com (!wired)?(coffee++):(wired);
