These days, it's no longer a case of "finding a provider that supports OpenBSD" as much as just making sure you're getting a KVM-based VPS (and not OpenVZ, for example). Then you mount the virtual CD of your choice and away you go, booting bsd.rd and installing your OS. Bigger players like Vultr will have fancy features like snapshots, APIs, etc. I like Vultr, but I also like supporting indy companies. BuyVM.net is one I can recommend, but you'll need to open a ticket to have them remove the mail port restrictions. RamNode is another quality host. I also have had a good experience at securedragon.net. Regardless of who you choose, I'd open a pre-sales ticket just to confirm they support what you want to run and what you want to do. I'd ask specifically if they have the OpenBSD version you want (and if not, every provider I've dealt with is happy to download the .iso and make it available...some even allow you to upload your own ISOs), and also ask about port restrictions. There are some forums dedicated to discussing cheap (and not so cheap) VPSes. I'm partial to lowendtalk.com, but there's also talk.lowendspirit.com and hostballs.com. I can't recommend WebHostingTalk.com any more as it's mostly turned into an advertising/sig spamming forum. -- andrew fabbro and...@fabbro.org
