thinking about it, it's probably due to the lack of vlan interfaces...

Looks like the same issue I just went through, documented on the mailing list, titled "upgrade from 3.1.0 to 3.3.2 empty pf.conf after configurator.pl". The version of Config::IniFiles currenty in the Cent repo 2.72-1 is broken. The function GroupMembers does not return any data, as expected. Updated to 2.75 via CPAN and that corrected the issue. Can be tested with the attacked code inicheck.pl

I had installed RPMForge for RHEL5 instead of RHEL6 on the server. Several packages were crippled.

People experiencing this should follow procedure in 0001461 in order to get rid of the el5 packages out of their system.
