Description

Affects 2.1.5 release as well as the latest 2.2 build - pfSense-LiveCD-2.2-BETA-amd64-20141015-1437.iso

Repro steps:
Clean install or LiveCD boot.

Create new Host or Network type alias.
With FQDN only - pfctl -T show -t alias shows the resolved IP list.
Add IP/Network to the alias - pfctl -T show -t alias shows 'Table does not exist.'

Table is never created when using only IP/Network for alias.

Upgraded configurations from 2.1.x work, but new aliases created have the issue.

Confirmed as described. Create a new host alias containing only "example.com", save and apply changes.

# host example.com 
example.com has address 93.184.216.119
example.com has IPv6 address 2606:2800:220:6d:26bf:1447:1097:aa7
# pfctl -t TestAlias -T show 
   93.184.216.119
   2606:2800:220:6d:26bf:1447:1097:aa7

That's correct. Now edit that alias, and add an IP address in the second box. Save and apply changes.

# pfctl -t TestAlias -T show
pfctl: Table does not exist.

Ermal pointed that the function I disabled is needed in some specific cases. I'm reviewing

It looks like there is still an issue with this.
If I create a new alias with 2 networks and 2 FQDN's, all expected entries are in the table.
Add another FQDN, some (or all) of the networks are removed but the resolved FQDN's stay in the table.
The resolver log shows messages like these:

filterdns: Different hostnames(10.0.0.0 - www.pfsense.org) resolve to same ip address
filterdns: Different hostnames(172.16.0.0 - www.pfsense.org) resolve to same ip address
