Hi Dan,

It looks to me like unmerged configuration files.


Assuming you run RHEL or CentOS, run this command to find files which you 
should merge or discard: 

# find /usr/local/pf -name \*.rpm\*


The errors you mention are usually caused by having .rpmnew files which contain 
changes to configuration files.
You should have a look at those files to see what has changed.

That would probably fix the errors and warnings you saw, which indicate a 
mismatch between configuration items and documentation.


Regards,
