Okay, I ran 'tcpdump -evvr /var/log/pflog' and saw entries like: 09:37:39.020855 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 108: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=90 09:49:27.402022 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 09:49:27.946815 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 09:49:28.479792 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:04:16.389863 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 972: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=954 10:12:52.206911 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:12:52.747479 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:12:53.287096 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:15:46.908598 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:15:47.411027 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:15:47.844158 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:18:42.252439 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:18:42.957580 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:18:43.660591 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:19:37.303808 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 411: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=393 10:29:43.254878 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 10:29:44.788968 33:0:0:0:0:0 3d:2:1:0:6e:65 0000 112: null I (s=0,r=0,C) len=94 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.
