in your pf.conf and
pfctl -t goodguys -T add \
something.somewhere.com \
somethingelse.somewhere.com \
xxx.yyy.zzz.qqq &
into your /etc/rc.local, so pf will start up without delays.
I forgot to mention that I'm on a FreeBSD 7 system so the rc.local thing
must go somewhere else, do you know where?

Yes. Also you would have to clear the table before loading new IP
addresses into it. Querying authoritative server with, for example
`nslookup`, instead of relying on local resolver would make this thing
more robust.

Thank you Dennis.
I've started on a script to run as root fron cron.
I need a little help to invoke the nslookup function and make it go into
the goodguys table.
The flushing part I've got ;-)
But then what do I do?
----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
pfctl -F Tables

Thanks
