From http://www.openbsd.org/ : Our efforts emphasize portability, standardization, correctness, proactive security and integrated cryptography.

[more, see the site for details] In my experience, OpenBSD focuses on providing a secure by default OS which has a very paranoid, minimalist feel. FreeBSD focuses on providing cutting-edge features while maintaining a very stable, mature and robustly integrated core. Try both, each has its place in my network. -- Christopher Schulte http://www.schulte.org/ Do not un-munge my @nospam.schulte.org email address. This address is valid.
