I recently purchased a Dell T-330 server that I had intended to
install OpenBSD on and use as a serious web server. My goal was to
have more control than would be (naturally) given with, say an AWS VM.
And by control, I mean what is *not* running on the box - security-wise.

Lots of miscommunications in these threads. The original poster here was
talking about setting up a virtual firewall machine to deal with traffic on
a single box.
Most of the war stories are from sys admins protecting a corporate LAN (or

IP is a fairly high-order construct. Beneath it , the data link and

I like your suggestion! I am security paranoid to a fault. For me, a

Just a quick shout-out to Roderick:
Thank you for the paper reference. It's probably perfect for my needs,
but I've been a bit busy, as of late. So no papers, regardless of year
written.
One of my favorite references is Thompson's "Reflections on Trusting Trust"
so I'm hep to your SuperFly-Era
First of all, I must say that it is with genuine gratitude that I read your
responses!
Moving on...

If you know the supportable system well and your goal is only
a slight variation of that that system does, then that makes
perfect sense.
If the following questions trigger a sense of road rage, you may
safely assume they are not directed to you.
Is anyone running in single-user mode regularly?
Is anyone running a web server, for instance, in single-user mode?

Thank you, Mihai. I needed that.
And honest, sincere thanks to Theo, for working hard, smart,
and continuously for decades. You are unique.
