Hi,
i'm having a similar problem for an opt interface on Rel 1.2 full inst:
There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:129: syntax error/tmp/rules.debug:130: syntax error /tmp/rules.debug:131: syntax error /tmp/rules.debug:224: syntax error pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded - The line in question reads [129]: pass in quick on $PubWlan proto udp from any port = 68 to 255.255.255.255 port = 67 label "allow access to DHCP server"…
I got around by changing the opt interface name to lowercase letters, but this should be fixed on 1.2.x as well.
Mixed case on 1.2 has never been a problem, this thread is entirely related to changes in 1.3. I have 1.2 installs using mixed case interface names and know many others do as well. I'm guessing you probably have an alias with the same name, which isn't valid and input validation has been added to 1.2.1 to prevent that.
Yes, you are absolutely right. I had an alias with the same name as the interface. After I changed the alias, and then the interface name, I no longer see the previous problems.
Thanks for all your help, it is highly appreciated.
