I have OpenBSD 3.8 as a router. This is my pf.conf
ext_if=dc0
int_if=xl0
tcp_services = {22, 113}
icmp_types = echoreq
priv_nets = {127.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/16, 172.16.0.0/12, 10.0.0.0/8}
#options

Everything goes fine, until any connection is lost and the ping command returns:
ping: wrote x.x.x.x 64 chars, ret=-1
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: wrote x.x.x.x 64 chars, ret=-1
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: wrote x.x.x.x 64 chars, ret=-1
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: icmp_seq=7 ttl=255 time=0.684 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x icmp_seq=8 ttl=255 time=0.306 ms
It doesn't matter if I ping the internal network, or the ISP gateway,
the result is the same: first no route to host, after a few seconds
i get a reply..
If I comment everything in RULES an I put pass all, it's working
with no problems, so I exclude a hardware problem.
