There's not enough in PF to make a whole book. However, I'm hoping to include a couple chapters on it in my OpenBSD book. Worst case, I plan to put in recipies on how to pass traffic of various protocols across various "styles" of pf firewall. So, Dan, are you planning to rework the whole pf tool suite for 3.3, as you did between 3.1 and 3.2? That'll tell me how many pages I can spend on it... if the user-visible interface is still flopping around, I have to trim the page count I'm planning for it. ==ml -- Michael Lucas [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/q/Big_Scary_Daemons Absolute BSD: http://www.AbsoluteBSD.com/
