My bad, forgot to add [email protected] in my reply to Ken, here it is
for the record.
The default value for 'ssh' in /etc/services would be 22. So
you're
going to have to remember to change either /etc/pf.conf or
/etc/services to avoid the problem. You don't describe enough of
your
situation to make clear why editing /etc/services would make more
sense than editing /etc/pf.conf.
I'm not talking about /etc/pf.conf, but the default pf-ruleset
loaded
during startup (in /etc/rc).
Hmm. In that case I'm not sure /etc/services is actually accessible
at
that time. And what if it is missing? We would not want to make the
system come up wide open.
But there are 4 other rules using /etc/services already?
If you had started with "Other default rules use /etc/services, why
not ssh?" there would have been less confusion in the minds of
slackers like myself who did not go look at /etc/rc. :-)

As Ken perfectly wrote it: "Other default rules use /etc/services, why
not ssh?"
