I've been a FreeBSD user for a while now and I love it. I'm running 4.10 and plan on upgrading soon. I'm also an OpenBSD user but I tend to use it for firewalls and routers. I setup Apache and Subversion on OpenBSD 3.6 last week. This is the first time I have ever done anything other then a firewall on OpenBSD. I'm thinking about using OpenBSD on more servers. Before I do that I would like to know what people on the list think. Why I want to switch to OpenBSD. 1. OpenBSD has good security 2. Stable 3. Firewall and routing support is built in Why I use FreeBSD 1. Stable 2. Ports tree has a lot of software 3. I can upgrade to new versions Should I make the switch from FreeBSD to OpenBSD for my servers? -- Damien Hull <dhull@digitaloverload.net>
