I have followed the instructions in the FreeBSD Handbook for implementing pf,
but when I run pfctl -e, I get:
pfctl: /dev/pf: No such file or directory".
I do an ls of /dev and sure enough, there's no pf device. I have googled for a
couple of days (!) and my fingers are about to fall off and
Hi Gavin,
Check your /etc/make.conf. I remember that you can disable it if
NO_PF=YES is not commented out. Also, I remember reading it somewhere
that pf requires 'device bpf' in the kernel (which you might want to
check for that too). I presume you used a copy of GENERIC kernel file
and comment
Hi Gavin,
Have you rebuilt world or is it a clean install? Update the src to
RELENG_6_2 patch 9 via cvs? If I remember correctly, a clean install
of 6.2-RELEASE from the cD should have the require pf device. You can
start using it by enabling in the rc.conf. (ALTQ will not be available
until yo

My mistake, I DO have pf.ko:
# ls /boot/kernel/pf.ko
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 184K Jan 25 09:33 kernel/pf.ko
I was trying "ls /boot/kernel/pf" before. Now I'm wondering why I'm still
getting "kldload: can't load pf.ko: No such file or
directory" when I run kldload.
Sigh,

I followed your instructions to a "T" and then after I rebooted, I double
checked everything to make sure I didn't do
anything stupid. Still no /dev/pf. Running kldstat still shows that pf.ko
didn't get loaded. Trying to load it via your
instructions (kldload -v pf) I get:

First of all, thanks! :)

Check your /etc/make.conf. I remember that you can disable it if
NO_PF=YES is not commented out.

Well, after a recommendation from our university network engineer, Chris, who
is a FreeBSD expert, I decided to look into the whole devfs thing. Although it
was new to me, a couple of quick glances at man pages and experiments produced
a /dev/pf for me. Now I have a firewall! :D Seems very stran

Gavin,
I have never had to do anything like this and nevertheless I have /dev/pf
I have pf compiled into the kernel, so I wouldn't blame it on "must be
module" either.
Could you send me, please, the following files, I would really like to
L config
- /etc/make.conf
- /etc/rc.conf
- /etc/fstab
- /boot/loader.conf
Thanks
Sincerely,
Vadym Chepkov
