i run some scripts out of cron (and from rc.local on boot) to keep some tables
in sync with DNS. the scripts are perl so i can use Net::DNS, but apart from
that its been pretty robust and straightforward.

A problem that seems to come up over and over again with egress filtering

I recently migrated to using pf and was wondering if anyone had suggestions
for how they tackle this problem.
I realize I could create cron jobs with scripts to do this, but was curious
if there was a better way.
I'd eventually like to track changes and log them as well.
