Dear all,

My home dail-up network use pppoe to connect to the Internet from an OpenBSD
(3.3) gateway. The problem now is whenever ISP change the IP, I will need to
login to the gateway and reintialize the pf rules manually. Do I need to
write a script to update the $IP in the pf.conf rule file and then
re-initialize PF?

thanks
sam

Just use (tun0) as IP in your rules. This will automatically update the IP
address whenever tun0's IP changes.
