Just to be clear, you are running tcpdump on borg, right? The
statement "This is from my Cable Modem:" confuses me a bit.

Assuming tcpdump is on borg, it is making past any firewall (pf or
ipfw, at least). What about /etc/hosts.allow? I don't recall if it
filters before or after pcap see packets. I used to have a diagram
showing the sequence of processing this, but I can't seem to find it
now.

What does "netstat -af inet | grep syslog" show? Is syslogd actually listening?
