Re: A prototype of suggested OpenBSD manual

Hi, I just finished upgrading a 3.8 system to 4.1 and performing a fresh install on a system that previously had Linux installed on it. Naturally while performing these upgrades I had to occasionally consult the OpenBSD documentation (FAQs on installation/upgrading). The existing documentation wor

Hi, I don't think this question is really OpenBSD specific per-se but rather an OpenSSH command. I'm using public key authentication between my OpenBSD systems (running ssh-agent) so that I can ssh/sftp between my systems (both are 4.1) without having to enter a password. As part of some IPSec pe

Hi, I've recenly installed OpenBSD 3.7 on my Zaurus C3000. While perusing the afterboot manpage to figure out how to configure my system, I noticed that the manpage indicated that the /etc/rc.conf.local file was referred to before the manpage stated that the user had to create this file. So
