I use pf on DragonFly and it’s probably worth noting that pretty much any 
FreeBSD documentation on pf will hold equally true because of DragonFly getting 
it from FreeBSD. Sephe did a lot of work on it a few years back with Dillon to 
greatly improve performance. In any event, newer pf on OpenBSD has a slightly 
different syntax and FreeBSD and DragonFly both use the old style syntax.
