OpenBSD Webzine ISSUE #17.

The webzine is almost 10 months late, I got unable to handle the webzine for a while and so I started to accumulate a huge backlog. As time passed, it became more and more daunting to deal with all the content. In order to get out of this situation, here is a special webzine edition with all the links gathered since then, separated in three categories of "difficulty": simple / medium / advanced. It is only an attempt to separate complicated topics from content everyone would enjoy, do not hesitate to take a peek on the three levels :)

Why I stopped using OpenBSD?

Last month, I decided to leave the OpenBSD team as I have not been using OpenBSD myself for a while. A lot of people asked me why I stopped using OpenBSD, although I have been advocating it for a while. Let me share my thoughts. First, I like OpenBSD, it has values, and it is important that it exists. It just does not fit all needs, it does not fit mine anymore...

P. S. Well, such feedback should be taken into account, too.

Cruising a VPS at OpenBSD Amsterdam.

When it comes to getting an OpenBSD virtual machine, you can go to your preferred Linux VPS provider and hack its rescue mode to install OpenBSD. Or you can go to a VPS provider that offers booting from an ISO file and getting access to the console. In that case, you’d probably get an OpenBSD VM running on KVM. Which is not that bad.

But you can also book your VM from OpenBSD Amsterdam and let the 100% OpenBSD journey begin...
