I've used OpenBSD for a couple of years now as access-point/gateway/dns/dhcp/web-server/svn-server in a medium sized environment with no issues (except MANUALLY screwing up, but that's just my fault). Since you've used OpenBSD for some time, you must know it's greatly stable and secure. If you ever run into trouble, you'll always have an excellent documentation to turn to. Remember; a software program is as good as it's documentation. OpenBSD's documentation is the best. Just be sure that whoever wants this server (in case it's not for you), won't want ridiculous fancy GUIs to monitor/configure everything. Other than that, I'd say go for it. -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera
