Quoting Nicholas Janzen [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
OpenBSD is secure by default.
The default install is secure, without any modifications.
That's because by default everything is turned off; secure by default but

the OS Scan project covered this very topic. www.securitywriters.org.
Linux 7.2, windows 2000, XP, Solaris 6 and 8 and etc.
a security assessment of modern day tools was performed on each os out of the box.
Then the latest patches were applied and systems were rescanned. Solaris 6 really
One still disassembled and still in the box.

You can't tell anything like that without knowing what your needs are.
The same about your skills and preferences.
Anyway, if I have to recommand an os who quickly reacts on vulnerabilities and
who get a real great team of development, I would like to quote OpenBSD :)
