Thanks everyone for your feedback on such a general question. I must say that pfSense is truely impressive and has almost everything you need for an advanced firewall/gateway. It can also be extended and used to serve non-firewall apps such as VoIP and more. In any case and despite what firewall purists may say, I suppose you can install whatever the underlying FreeBSD system allows you to, just as long as you manually configure it via shell (is this true or has pfSense changed the directory structure, the init system or any other aspect?).
However, has pfSense forked so much from FreeBSD to the extent that applying its patches is a draconian task? I have no idea but I'm supposing that most patches are for the kernel. If so, why haven't they been accepted upstream? Anyway, thanks for the great software and I hope it will go smoothly on my first production setup.
