What are the VPN available on OpenBSD.

I wanted to write this text for some time, a list of VPN with encryption that can be used on OpenBSD. I really don't plan to write about all of them but I thought it was important to show the choices available when you want to create a VPN between two peers/sites.

📺 The OpenBSD hypervisor in the wild, a short story, but getting longer. (Dutch)

In the Summer of 2018 —after a poll on Twitter— OpenBSD Amsterdam started testing with vmm(4)/vmd(8). Mostly to see how far we could take it; more importantly to give back to the project. Little did we know where it would take us. During this talk, Mischa will outline how it all started, how it’s built, how we operate the platform, what speedbumps we encountered and where we are now.

SecBSD

Open source volunteer project to develop security focused UNIX-like operating system based upon OpenBSD for security researchers, pentesters, bug hunters, cybersecurity folks, hacktivists and paranoid dudes. Inside, the development process follows the same philosophy as OpenBSD, we believes in strong security, privacy and cryptography by default.

Running OpenBSD 7.0 on your laptop is really hard (not).

Instructions on this page will provide a nice xfce4 based desktop. I'm using it on a Thinkpad X220 with a 480Gb SSD and 8Gb RAM. The example command results and links are still pointing to 6.8/6.9 at present. I'll update these in a week or two...

Running the Searx metasearch engine on OpenBSD.

Searx is a free metasearch engine. This means that it will aggregate search results from several search engines, like Bing, DuckDuckGo, Google or Qwant. But it will also use search engines from services like DailyMotion, DeviantArt, FramaLibre, GitHub, Reddit or Wikipedia to extract search results.

LiveUSB-OpenBSD.

It is trivial to a create a bootable USB stick with OpenBSD. I wanted to create one and realized that this will be of general use for anyone who likes a UNIX USB memory stick that they can carry with them on a keychain.

These LiveUSB images are based on 7.0 release of OpenBSD made on Oct 14,2021. Note that these are volunteer effort and strictly unofficial.

OpenBSD on the HiFive Unmatched.

My desktop's power supply died, and rather than replace the ill-fated PSU I decided to go with something different. OpenBSD's new riscv64 port looked interesting, so I got a HiFive Unmatched to see how it would work as an OpenBSD desktop...

How BSD Authentication Works.

... OpenBSD on the other hand uses a mechanism called BSD Authentication. It was originally developed for a now-defunct proprietary operating system called BSD/OS by Berkeley Software Design Inc., who later donated the system. It was then adopted by OpenBSD in release 2.9. BSD Auth is comparatively much simpler than PAM. Modules or, authentication "styles", are instead stand alone applications or scripts that communicate over IPC. The module has no ability to interfere with the parent and can very easily revoke permissions using pledge(2) or unveil(2). The BSD Authentication system of configured through login.conf(5)...

Packaging the DMD D compiler for OpenBSD.

I will be giving a talk at DConf 2021 about the larger adventure of D on OpenBSD. So I won't spoil everything in this blog post, but this blog post will be a part of the larger talk...
