Oh well, having just learnt the astonishing truth that OpenBSD CD images aren't available for download, the (probably unrealistic) possiblity of deploying an OpenBSD based firewall this Saturday rather than the planned Linux deployment has just dropped to precisely 0%.
Maybe I'll just play with an FTP install, and delay deployment to a future date, but there's no way I can deploy critical infrastructure without install media (particularly in the case of a piece of infrastucture the failure of which would take out my net access). Probably for the best anyway, I guess building a firewall on an unfamiliar OS in a hurry is not the best idea in the world... Sorry to complain, just feel the need to vent my frustration at the fact that it appears I can't get hold of a copy of OpenBSD at short notice... -roy
