Subject says it all. I know Core Force has it. However, Core Force is bloated in my view, and I don't need all its features. What I want is just to try and use pf under Windows 2000. (I would then compare it with wipfw, a Windows port of ipfw, which I have been trying now.)
Is there any Windows port of pf (_not_ Core Force)?

IIRC the packet filter "CHX-I" is based upon 'pf' as well.

Thanks Sebastian, I didn't know that, although I heard a lot of good things said about CHX-I.
Is it possible to work with text-based (or 'quasitext', like XML etc.) rules there? I only saw screenshots of CHX-I rule creation form, and I don't know how rules are actually stored there.
One of the reasons I stopped using Kerio 2.1.5 once ago was exactly its way of storing rules in a crippled file, whereby the user is unable to sort them automatically, edit them other than through Kerio's GUI, etc.

IIRC one could pass the configuration via command line.
Ah, not because it's totally broken?
Sebastian Gottschalk:
'Totally' is not the right word here IMO. I know all too well of some of Kerio's flaws; still, it was one of the best pieces _in its class_ and _for the particular tasks I had for it_.
Eh, no. It was as unusable as all its companions.
