Except for the part where THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT ANY PROXY USER THERE. I assume you're talking about this entry: 20040308: The packet filter (pf) is now installed with the base system. Make sure to run mergemaster -p before installworld to create required user accounts. If you do not want to build pf with your system you can use the NO_PF knob in make.conf. Also note that pf requires "options PFIL_HOOKS" in the kernel. The pf system consists of the following three devices: device pf # required device pflog # optional device pfsync # optional I would be REALLY NICE if the message mentioned SOMETHING that occurred somewhere in this entry. I stumbled across this too, because I read the UPDATING entries looking for something about "proxy" and didn't catch this item, so I didn't watch the changes to passwd closely enough in mergemaster -p. Let's try to make references to UPDATING a bit more clear, and be a little less terse with each other when problems do arise, mmm'kay? And Marcin: if you don't have time to read UPDATING, you don't have time to run -CURRENT. It's a necessary part. Really. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
