I’ve been playing with OpenBSD again … This time I hope to get further … When the FreeBSD firewall machine went down, I created a brand new one using FreeBSD 4.11 … I upgraded the sources to p13 … Almost immediately after, I received the notice that FreeBSD 6.0 was officially released, and a visit to their web site showed that there is no more FreeBSD 4.11 …
I started building an OpenBSD firewall, but gave up pretty quickly since it wasn’t comfortable … It didn’t feel like FreeBSD, so then I started working on a FreeBSD 6.0 solution which has ported a lot of OpenBSD features over … I have been running into some walls there, so I decided I would try OpenBSD again and see just how far I could get even though it doesn’t have conveniences that I’m used to … I’ll keep this bLog posted with what goes on … It’s just starting …
