OpenBSD is a Unix-like computer operating system descended from Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), a Research Unix derivative developed at the University of California, Berkeley. It was forked from NetBSD by project leader Theo de Raadt in late 1995. As well as the operating system, the OpenBSD Project has produced portable versions of numerous subsystems, most notably PF, OpenSSH and OpenNTPD, which are very widely available as packages in other operating systems.
The project is also widely known for the developers' insistence on open-source code and quality documentation, uncompromising position on software licensing, and focus on security and code correctness. The project is coordinated from de Raadt's home in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Its logo and mascot is a pufferfish named Puffy.
OpenBSD includes a number of security features absent or optional in other operating systems, and has a tradition in which developers audit the source code for software bugs and security problems. The project maintains strict policies on licensing and prefers the open-source BSD licence and its variants. In the past this has led to a comprehensive license audit and moves to remove or replace code under licences found less acceptable.

Reason why Openbsd fell to bits on me
OpenBSD is not for everyone. It is a useful set of utilities for people that like it. The next video will be about compatible hardware.
In this video i am going to show how-to install OpenBSD 6.0 with the Xfce desktop and some basic applications. Support the Channel on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/ribalinux Buy Me a Coffee http://ko-fi.com/A0383T5 The OpenBSD project produces a free, multi-platform BSD 4.4-based UNIX-like operating system. Its efforts emphasize portability, standardisation, correctness, proactive security and integrated cryptography. The project also develops the widely-used and popular OpenSSH (OpenBSD Secure Shell) software, which provides encrypted communication sessions over a computer network using the SSH protocol. http://www.openbsd.org COMMANDS http://ribalinux.blogspot.pt/2016/09/how-to-install-openbsd-60-plus-xfce.html PLEASE SUBSCRIBE AND FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER GOOGLE+ OR FACEBOOK!!

Originally recorded on May 27, 2014. OpenBSD is frequently billed as a high-security operating system. That's true, but security isn't the OpenBSD Project's main goal. This webcast will introduce systems administrators to OpenBSD, explain the project's mission, and discuss the features and benefits. About Michael W. Lucas: Michael W. Lucas is a systems and network engineer who keeps getting stuck with problems nobody else wants to touch. He's the author of critically acclaimed books, including Absolute OpenBSD, SSH Mastery, Absolute FreeBSD, Sudo Mastery, PGP & GPG, and Cisco Routers for the Desperate. Don't miss an upload!

In this first video, we setup an OpenBSD 6.0 virtual machine to prepare a web server. We will cover the basic steps, from downloading the image file, checking the ISO integrity, setting a VM with an EFI bootloader in VMware and installting the OpenBSD operating system. |+| OpenBSD https://www.openbsd.org/ |+| VMware http://www.vmware.com/ |+| PowerShell script: http://pastebin.com/CWTSQCQc |+| OpenBSD Paper on httpd: https://www.openbsd.org/papers/httpd-slides-asiabsdcon2015.pdf
OpenBSD is known for incredible security, but that's not what it's really about and that's not what the project exists for. Lucas will present on OpenBSD's history, its technology, and what drives the community. You'll learn not only what makes OpenBSD unique, but why you should keep an eye on it even if you would never dream of switching away from your current operating system. Michael W. Lucas is a network engineer, systems administrator, martial artist, and critically-acclaimed author. He was on the Internet before the Web existed, and now works for an independent telecommunications wholesaler in Michigan. His recent books include "Absolute OpenBSD, 2nd edition," "DNSSEC Mastery," "SSH Mastery," "Network Flow analysis," and the forthcoming "Sudo Mastery."
I would reccomend watching the previous video in the "Tutorials from Beginning" playlist, but if you have basic UNIX knowledge, you should be fine. I start out trying to set up ssh, but then find that I can't connect to the internet! Watch me struggle.

OK, so here is why i hit a wall with OpenBSD
