>From pf.conf(5), under OPERATING SYSTEM FINGERPRINTING:

     "Passive OS Fingerprinting is a mechanism to inspect nuances of a TCP con-
      nection's initial SYN packet and guess at the host's operating system.
      Unfortunately these nuances are easily spoofed by an attacker so the fin-
      gerprint is not useful in making security decisions.  But the fingerprint
      is typically accurate enough to make policy decisions upon."

For more info, please see pf.conf(5), pf.os(5), pf(4), and the PF User's
Guide -- http://www.OpenBSD.org/faq/pf/index.html
