I've been unable to get pfil-2.1.7 working properly on solaris 9. I've 
completely removed ipfilter from the system for troubleshooting purposes. 
The system is a solaris 9 SunFire V240, and I see packet loss when the module 
is loaded. I'm pinging the problem system from another host on the same subnet, 
which doesn't have pfil installed.

        The problem is always reproducable, and affects all traffic. When pfil 
is not loaded (when I have an 'exit' at the top of the script) there is no 
packet loss. 
I've also noticed that pfil doesn't seem to load up manually from the 
commandline after booting up, but this may be a seperate issue. 

no pfil:

----192.168.1.102 PING Statistics----
172 packets transmitted, 172 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip (ms)  min/avg/max = 0/0/1

pfil loaded on boot:

----192.168.1.102 PING Statistics----
121 packets transmitted, 87 packets received, 28% packet loss
round-trip (ms)  min/avg/max = 0/0/0

I would appreciate some feedback/input as I'm now at a loss as to what is 
wrong. 
Thanks in advance.
