Description Eric Anderson 2002-08-21 15:30:01 UTC 
      The ipmon(8) man page is missing the 'S' charactor in the description of logging fields.  The line numbered "5." has the missing S:
5.  The  action: p for passed, b for blocked,  for a short
packet, n did not match any rules or L for a log rule.

Should be:
5.  The  action: p for passed, b for blocked, S for a short 
packet, n did not match any rules or L for a log rule.

How-To-Repeat:       man ipmon on FreeBSD 4.6.2 (4.6, 4.5 also).

Since ipfilter is contributed software, this can be fixed at the
official ipf source tree and cleanly imported with the next update of
ipfilter.  Do you think you can work on this with Darren (the author
of ipfilter)?  Then we can close this PR, and let the next import do
the proper thing.

Ok.. Thanks for the redirect.. I should have known that, but I think I'm in the 
habit now of slapping a "doc" on there for the PR. :)

Good ahead and close it.

ipfilter is contributed software, and Eric has kindly accepted to 
bring this up with the ipf developers.  Thank you, Eric, for 
submitting the report.

Thanks for the tip.
