Re: A great article ( found on the OpenBSD site)
An American Speaks here: I work for a ISP *Routing/Switching/MPLS/Multicast/SS7/IP Video/VoIP* I managed to get my eye balls on OpenBSD about 5 years ago now. After spending about 8 months using Frankenstein hardware I finally got my Boss to let me start using OpenBSD firewalls in the network. Now we have a embedded system running on CF making the company all kinds of money. I also am using bgpd as a route reflector and testing ospfd in my lab of Cisco gear. I'm really looking forward to also seeing a PIM DM/SM capable router in the future running OpenBSD ;-) Put OpenBSD anywhere you can and play with it. It will prove itself even in the Trashiest Windows Infested American Enterprise.

You could find a more sensible employer who would allow you to do the right things the right way when it obviously benefits the company :-) kind regards Siju

Thanks for pointing us to the follow up. Working in a similar environment to Mark I kind of assumed many of the things he clarified. Greg

Yeah, an interesting quote, all right. It's obvious that his corporate culture is very different from the one where i work. I did exactly that for a few years (not exclusively with OpenBSD, but with a mixture of what i consider good operating systems). I saved the company money and set up a stable, secure infrastructure. They found out and told me to replace all of it with new hardware and a single "standardized" operating system. They'll thank You later?

I saw it on openbsd-newbies. Sorry about that Bob. Anyway, it's a damn cool article. I keep slipping OpenBSD in at work but I haven't had a chance to initiate a sea change. We've got several firewall projects at work where OpenBSD and CARP would save us big bucks but our networking department is just too close-minded. Greg
