There is a great book, Absolute OpenBSD.  Here is an Amazon link.

1999/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-3317365-9051822?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1173188895&
sr=8-1

        This is really how I got started.  But, also remember, the
OpenBSD man pages are generally considered the best in the business. 

HTH,

Subject: taking over a LAN I didn't set up

I sent this to openbsd misc but someone suggested this list....
I realize I may get flamed or ignored here, but I need help. I hope
someone
will have the compassion to point me in the right direction.
My husband passed away, and left this great LAN setup using OpenBSD. I
LOVE
using OpenBSD, but I thought we would have more time together for him to
teach me, like he wanted to.
Unfortunately, I didn't have him show me what's what while he was still
able, and I have only used this OS as a desktop user. I CANNOT go back
to
Windows. He unplugged his mail and webservers before he passed away, and
I
need to know how in the world do I figure out what's what with this LAN?
Even if I sign in as him I do not know what to look at to figure this
stuff
out. I am determined to teach myself this stuff, just like he did.  I
will
be moving soon and I don't even know what files to configure with the
new
IPs once I get moved.  I have a basic understanding of UNIX and VI. I
know I
can figure this stuff out but I just have to know where to start. Can
anyone
give me a clue? I have watched him do this stuff for years, and I know I
can
learn it, but I just do not know where to start.
Please be nice... :(
