Also, would it be a bad idea to use both Ports and Packages? For
example since the mozilla-firefox Port isn't working, and I use
Packages to install Firefox, would it conflict with other Ports
that I use, or the dependencies the softwares might share?

I ran into an error trying to install Firefox (I think the latest
version in Ports is 8.0.1) so I thought I might be updating
incorrectly.
First, this is the error I get when I try to install Firefox:

In both the Packages list (for 5.0) and Ports, there are various
different versions of Firefox, such as 3.5.xx, 3.6.xx, 7.x.xx, etc.,
all seemingly separately maintained software for each of these.

I heard that since 4.9, there has been some changes to the /dev/randoms in
OpenBSD. I'm unsure of what the changes exactly are, but for confidentiality in
terms of entire hard drives (talking terabytes of SATAII hard drives), would
/dev/srandom still be the best suitable for this task? Last I re

My ISP refuses to modify any DNS settings and won't give me a static IP address
without a business account, so no proper reverse DNS. I don't have the
resources to run my own nameservers, so what alternatives do I have in terms of
running my own mailserver?
The only issue I have with running my own mail server is that I can receive
e-mails, but for whatever reason I cannot send out e-mails. I'm assuming it's
because mail servers are denying e-mails from my IP or something since I'm on a

The jumbo patch for JTR has a lot of great features but in order to use it you
need to compile from source as opposed to installing from packages (or Ports).
