I can't see how pf is selecting these connections to be blocked. In what sense are the packets that are getting blocked part of a connection? Are you sure the blocked packets are actually a legitimate first packet, with the appropriate flags set, or is the "flags S/SA" portion of your rule not matching? -- --Jon Radel j...@radel.com
