Re: OpenBSD and you

I am (almost) total newbie in respect with networks. Currently in process of building my own firewall/gateway for home network (based on APU 2C4), I've decided to take the right (and difficult, at least for me) way of doing so by using OpenBSD's pf. Peter's excellent book is my main help and

Encrypted data partition

Hello, I'd like to have an encrypted Ext2 data partition, which can be shared between OpenBSD and Linux. LUKS probably does not work in OpenBSD. Maybe something like EncFS is the way to go? Thank you Jan

Encryption

Hi guys, I have a small problem with httpd and Wordpress. When I go to https://myipaddress I get "Access denied". If I go to https://myipaddress/wordpress, everything works as expected. I have tried to change the appropriate line in the httpd.conf to: root "/htdocs/wordpress". In that case the

Syncthing

Hi all, I am trying to sync my media libraries via Syncthing with other machine. However Syncthing on OBSD complains about "too many open files" and refuses therefore to scan and synchronize the folder. I have increased sysctl kern.maxfiles as well as openfiles-max for the staff group (of which

Hi all, strange problem. I am running -current. I have downloaded latest ports tree .tar.gz to /temp, then tar xzf in /usr. All ports are where they belong (/usr/ports). However when searching anything (make search key=package) I get following error: Please install portslist pkg_add portslist ***

Thinkpad donation

Hi, I may have one spare Thinkpad X270 in mint conditions, which I would be willing to donate to one of the OpenBSD developers. Not sure how to proceed with this. I would probably prefer a developer located somewhere close to me (Czech Republic, eastern part of Germany,…) as it will be
