what you are trying to avoid doing is easier than going the completely unsupported route of making a Frankenstein system. Routine upgrades of /at least/ once a year HAVE to be part of your OpenBSD plans. It is that simple. "It's hard to do!" is not a valid excuse, that means the rest of your plan is not properly designed. Most of the benefits you gained by using OpenBSD are negated by what you are (not) doing and attempting to get away with. Nick.
