And it is free to use. that would be fine, except for a few small points: 1. outside testing using specialized tools 2. access to third point(s) of reference for network continuity 3. ability to run some services "off circuit" (such as a private bt tracker or webspace or the like). There are a lot of other reasons. I did find the problem with pf though. seems that between the version on 3.7 OpenBSD and 3.8, there was a change in how the block filter works relational to everything else. :( will have to research how to mitigate the fault now. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
