Agreed > 2. application jails > 3. server jails Could you point me to info on this? I know that OpenBSD has chroot and a few other features like systrace, but I haven't seen anything comparable to FreeBSD's full jails. > 5. able to run on 2 GB or less reliably This is a nice plus. FreeBSD (without ZFS) can do this, as can at least Debian as I have several boxes with 2GB of RAM or less. Though I'd note that OpenBSD can run remarkably comfortably in 256MB of RAM which is a lot harder for other OSes to do. > 6. takes minimal disk space for all but an X-desktop installation even with X, it's pretty svelte. I just installed a fresh OpenBSD with X but no additional packages yet, and the entire install clocks in at under 570MB. Foregoing X saves you about 200MB. -tim _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
