Self-hosting OpenBSD server, any documentation?

2023-07-08 Thread lisper . dreamer
Hi, misc!
What documents would you recommend for setting up a self-hosted OpenBSD server?
This way I might learn more about OpenBSD and what is under its hood.

Cheers,
Andy

The book "Absolute OpenBSD" is an excellent choice to expand your knowledge of 
the OpenBSD operating system. It was written by Michael W. Lucas and is 
regarded as a comprehensive resource for beginners and advanced users alike. It 
covers various aspects of OpenBSD, including installation, network security, 
system administration, and more. Enjoy reading it!

There is another book by Michael Lucas that may be of benefit: "Httpd and 
Relayd Mastery".
You can buy it as a *.pdf from Tilted Windmill Press.

One day I really should try this self-hosting which seems to be all the rage.

These are easy to follow introductions.
Also the man pages, all of the mentioned refer to them.

For those of us not very good at promoting, it turns out to be a very 
self-serving endeavor.
