| Summary | OpenBSD
is a Unix based OS that available as open source (free) in source code
form. It offers networking, performance and security for both the workstation,
Internet and Internet servers. OpenBSD has less ports and packages than FreeBSD or NetBSD, and is a bit more difficult to use than the others, but it is small, efficient and it has the best security. It's an excellent choice for a firewall or server. |
