You can use pfctl(8)'s -D switch to define the macros on the commandline or= =20 better in rc.conf(5)::pf_flags If you need plenty, that's not a perfect=20 sollution, I agree. In that case, I'd go for something like: cat /etc/pf.inc /etc/pf.conf | pfctl -f- =2D-=20 /"\ Best regards, | mlaier@freebsd.org \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | mlaier@EFnet / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News --nextPart13950728.gSDoTWMlUn Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBELDdnXyyEoT62BG0RAvz8AJsG8UaKpD5f/Eam/40ujuxA+Sd7gQCfTlC4 MbC24HfuQKDJvcnBH2/eGAI= =bGUB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart13950728.gSDoTWMlUn--
