Okay, I ran 'tcpdump -evvr /var/log/pflog' and saw entries like:

OS version is as follows:
OpenBSD 3.7-current (GENERIC) #0: Sat Jun  4 18:58:52 PDT 2005
    [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC

tcpdump -V shows:
tcpdump version 3.4.0
libpcap version 0.5

This machine has two interfaces - 'ne3' facing the Internet and 'rl0'
facing a small (3 computer) internal network. I am *assuming* that the
log entries pertain to the external interface but tcpdump is not showing
some information (such as block in/out, interface name, pf.conf rule
number) that it shows with other log entries.

As far as I know things are working fine - I'm just curious to know more
about what these events mean. As mentioned previously I haven't found
much help via Google or archives.

If there is anything else I can do to provide better information please
let me know.
