Hi, Unfortunately, I already tried using those header settings during my testing. And those don't solve my problem. What 'match header set "Keep-Alive" value "$TIMEOUT"' does is force relayd(8) to send a Keep-Alive header to httpd(8). But httpd(8) is already replying with a "Connection: keep-aliv

adding firmware during installation

Hi all, I'm installing OpenBSD 7.0 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T410, and I need the firmware iwn-firmware-5.11p1.tgz for the wireless card. Therefore, I opened a shell from the installer, mounted the USB stick I placed the downloaded firmware on, and now I'm stuck: I cannot install it because pkg_add is n
