I originally asked about this back in February:

     <http://www.monkey.org/freebsd/archive/freebsd-questions/200502/ 
msg03071.html>

Then just posted again recently with more details:

     <http://monkey.org/freebsd/archive/freebsd-questions/200505/ 
msg00846.html>


I *finally* figured out that pf was responsible. Specifically, this  
line:

     out on $ext_if proto { tcp, udp } all keep state

Everything's fine if I change it to this:

     out on $ext_if proto { tcp, udp } all


The stock version of pf.conf has the "keep state" version, though  
it's commented out by default. Is this a bug in pf, or is it normal  
behavior? Is it reasonable to use the version without the "keep  
state" qualifier?


Thanks,

    - Scott
