Hi -
I have got an OpenBSD box, and I would like to create regular full
backups of that box to a Linux server at a different location.
The main purpose of this backup is to be able to restore the OpenBSD box
on a severe hardware failure (HD corruption, fire, etc.). If possible,

Hi,
I was going to install SOGo on OpenBSD 5.7 using the native httpd(8).
In the readme, there are configuration examples for nginx and
apache-httpd-openbsd. Nothing for the new httpd.
There are rewrite/redirect features that I can’t figure out how to setup with
httpd(8).

i was putting a 2.5" 500G WD disk into a usb enclosure
and i noticed that instead of technical information
they used to put there (chs, lba, etc) most of the

Can confirm this. Quite a significant change on my Thinkpad X220.
Thanks a lot!
Groups and users are actually just numbers, the mapping to names happens
in the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files.
On Linux, user 0 is 'root' and group 0 is 'root'.
On BSDs, user 0 is 'root', but group 0 is 'wheel'.
Check the /etc/group file on both systems, and you will see.

My bad, that is true.
An user here had noticed that some shell variables existed in his shell
even if no /etc/profile nor ~/.profile (nor other files listed in sh(1)

Hello.
I have noticed that the ksh and sh manpages don't make reference to the
file /.profile, which I understand to hold the default shell variables if
the other source files listed on the manuals don't exist.

Thank You Gilles for Your reply.
Only the group is changed.
But why the owner is remained the same [root]?
On OpenBSD, I can not get root:root ?
Thanks.

Hi guys!
I copied my files from Debian [ext4] to my new server OpenBSD [5.7 amd64],
and I found that all files of 'ROOT' group were imported [in OpenBSD] in
the 'Wheel' group.
Why is this?

Thank fro reply.
David Coppa suggests a custom kernel with the GPT option turned on.
I'm thinking along the lines of
(1) compiling the custom kernels (GENERIC, GENERIC.MP, and RAMDISK
with the option GPT turned on) and
(2) making a bootable USB drive with that,
(3) backing up the current installed openbsd syste
