Michael,
        The key component to snort_inline is the iptables ip_queue.  This 
allows a user to tell the iptables firewall to send the packet from kernel 
space to a userspace program for routing decision.  If the OpenBSD 
equivalent of iptables does this, it would be a pretty easy port.

Snort inline looks like a great idea & I'd love to try it, but my monitoring 
station has too much OpenBSD-dependant on it to switch over to linux just 
for snort-inline. Does anyone know if it's likely to get ported for 
OpenBSD's PF too?
