Huh? travel$ uname -a OpenBSD travel.codewright.com 2.1 TRAVEL#3 i386 travel$ ls /etc/rc* /etc/rc /etc/rc.local.orig /etc/rc.local /etc/rc.securelevel travel$ man -k filter bpf (4) - Berkeley Packet Filter col (1) - filter reverse line feeds from input colcrt (1) - filter nroff output for CRT previewing ipf (1) - alters packet filtering lists for IP packet input and output ipf (4) - packet filtering kernel interface ipf (5) - IP packet filter rule syntax ipfstat (8) - reports on packet filter statistics and filter list ipftest (8) - test packet filter rules with arbitrary input. ... I'd say you did not do a complete install. This system was generated/installed from the "current" branch a week or so ago, so it is actually pre-2.1. Note: the latest/greatest files for /etc -- your rc.* files -- are not installed when you generate a system from source. I solved this by cd /usr/src/etc && make distribution-etc-root-var then restoring any local changes from my backed up copies of important files. I don't know if this was the correct thing to do, but it seemed to work for me. // marc
