ifconfig pfsync0 down

[Ronnie Garcia]

Hey,

I was expecting to stop pfsync with :
ifconfig pfsync0 down

But it did not.
I could stop pfsync by down'ing the physical device, but is there any 
other way around ?


I'm using 4.0

Rgds,

Hi

pfsync is a pseudo-device (see man pfsync)
To stop a pseudo-device you have to destroy it:
ifconfig pfsync0 destroy (see man ifconfig and search for pseudo-device)
