      I seem to have some troubles with my pfsense box.. (2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA, built on Mon Apr 13 15:35:05 EDT 2009, FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p4)
      The System log is being spammed with messages like this:

      Apr 15 15:20:30	check_reload_status: reloading filter
      Apr 15 15:20:26	apinger: alarm canceled: wan(88.66.xx.xx) *** delay ***

      It also seems to increase my CPU load alot, even when there's nearly no activity on my WAN.

      I have to mention though that I've played around with a bunch of not-officially supported packages some time ago, which could probably be the source of the problem!
      That's what is installed currently, according to pkg_info:

      bsdinstaller-2.0.2009.0317 BSD Installer mega-package
      gettext-0.17_1      GNU gettext package
      grub-0.97_3         GRand Unified Bootloader
      libiconv-1.11_1     A character set conversion library
      pcre-7.8            Perl Compatible Regular Expressions library
      perl-5.8.9_2        Practical Extraction and Report Language
      pkg-config-0.23_1   A utility to retrieve information about installed libraries
      znc-0.066           An advanced IRC bouncer
      
      

      I can't really remember if the problems occured after an update or fooling around with the packages :(
      So.. is the reloading filter a current bug, or did I mess up something inside my box?
      I just wanted to make sure that it's probably the latter before I start to DELETE FUCKING EVERYTHING and set up a clean install :p

      Oh, and sorry if I missed any crucial information, I'm by far no expert when it comes to any OS other than MS Windows  :'(

        The apinger warnings were caused by a typo in the code which accidentally set the latency low watermark to 10 ms, which should have been 10% packet loss.

        That's been fixed.
