OpenBSD3.4 Shipping

Posted by timothy on from the ahead-of-time dept.

skelley writes "As seen on deadly.org, OpenBSD 3.4 CDs have begin to ship. If you ordered one already, you should see a charge appear on your credit card (if that's how you paid) and you should expect to see your CD in the next few days to week (depending on where you are). The CDs are being shipped from Calgary. This is earlier than expected, but hey ... enjoy it!"

    It looks like the FreeBSD people are going to pull in OpenBSD's PF to replace the old and crufty IPF.

    ( OpenBSD PS was created out of a typical Theo spat with the IPF people - and has gone on to kick IPF's ass. PF is cool! )

    I love PF. It beats the crap out of netfilter/ipchains, IPF, and it's almost easier to use than a web interface on a hardware router.

    Dunno how happy you'll be with it as a desktop system. My OpenBSD machine lives in the basement crawlspace, and I'm reasonably sure it doesn't have a monitor or keyboard at the moment. I don't know what it's like with a GUI.
