I've seen the link you are relating to but I looked at it closer now
that you mentioned it. That setup is for server, is it the same for
desktop?

On a typical desktop, not running any services and a system you trust,
4.1 or newer, you could go really minimalist:

block all
pass out

I followed your excellent tutorial till punkt och pricka, only I chose
the "Slightly stricter" in one of the last pages. But now I cannot
download any packages from ftp. How should I modify the ruleset?
Mange takk in advance,

I solved it by disabling PF for a little while, then it turned itself
on again automatically. I still don't know how to configure PF for
ftp, but the most urgent problem for me now is that I cannot view
hhtps pages, for example I cannot login to my Gmail account from the
OBSD computer.
