.cwmrc - using mouse wheel to cycle windows

Running 6.1 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T450s

Hi, since my last OpenBSD on laptop testimony is a bit older [1] I decided to share some more recent news :) I installed OpenBSD 6.1 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T450s and wanted to share my experiences FYI. The tl;dr version is that 6.1 runs really awesome, no need for special stunts or configuration.

What's changing the default route?

I use an ssh tunnel for a VPN on OpenBSD 6.1. To initiate the VPN connection, I type the following on the local machine # ssh -f -w 0:1 R true # ifconfig tun0 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.252 # route add R G # route change default 10.1.1.2 where R is the IP address of the remote
