4.6 pf/bridge bug?

Late last week I submitted PR 6302. This morning I had it take down two more machines, within minutes of each other. The hardware in this case was completely different: One box is a 32bit Intel with em(4); the other is an amd64 with nfe(4). Has anyone else run into this? -- bda cyberpunk is

My suggestion would be to move all your services to run under runit or daemontools. You can manage both with Puppet. I'm not familiar with runit, really, but I've used daemontools for years, quite happily, on several platforms, including OpenBSD. -- bda cyberpunk is dead. long live cyberpunk.
