Subject: ping sendto: operation not permitted.

Dear all,

I am lately having problems with my firewall. There had not been any changes to the configuration and it had been working very fine. Out of nowhere I believe that pf is now acting abnormal and is blocking outgoing packets at random. It doesn't occur regular but I am getting the ping sendto: operation not permitted error and also its delaying udp queries to by dns servers that it generally protects. If I disable pf using 'pfctl -d' things go to normal and there isn't any issue. I also see connection  breaks when the pf itself tries to contact my ldap server for information. Disabling pf makes everything go back to normal. Any hint as where I should be looking would be highly appreciated. I have been pulling my hairs literally lately.

Regards,

-- Gaurav
