For the boxes behind the 4.3 firewall I made sure of the ftp-proxy setup is in
order. I also stripped down my pf rules to a bare minimum. Now when I
pkg_add from ftp.openbsd.org it gets farther along but still throws the "too
many connections" error after a bit. I tried a different mirror and it worked
fine. As long as I get it to work from one mirror or another I'll be fine.
Here's some of my config so more eyes can see it...
ftp-proxy is running
proxy 14500 0.0 0.1 540 1000 p3 S+ 8:49PM 0:01.27
/usr/sbin/ftp-proxy
stripped down pf rules for testing
ext_if="fxp2"
nat-anchor "ftp-proxy/*"
rdr-anchor "ftp-proxy/*"
rdr on $int_if inet proto tcp to port ftp -> \
127.0.0.1 port 8021
nat on $ext_if from !($ext_if) -> ($ext_if:0)
anchor "ftp-proxy/*"
pass all
