I can store a whitelist in a file and when it changes I can trigger (say) reload of npf. (I might possibly do something like tail -f on a file to trigger this. And a client side job will update the file.) But the next question is, I need npf to not entertain request from blocklistd to block a whitelisted ip stored in a file. Can someone suggest how to do this? -- Mayuresh
