Just using my laptop OpenBSD 3.3 (security patches applied)
and enjoying it lately. Haven't gotten into anything complicated
for a while now. Guess my next step is to get everything backed
up & then try upgrading the system with CVSUP or some other
means. Always have plenty of good documentation to fall back
on at OpenBSD's web site, daily reading of the newsgroups, &
Absolute OpenBSD, the book. I ordered a new 256MB Sandisk
FM card off of eBay to replace the 32MB one I've been using in
the adaptor in the pcmcia slot of my laptop. It'll give me a lot
more room for backing up my email & settings related stuff. I
hope I can remember how I used Disklabel to set the other
one up! :-)
Addendum: Adding this the following morning. Finally figured
out how to add the perl CPAN modules I needed to get the
perl script, /usr/local/f-prot/tools/check-updates.pl, to run.
It checks with f-prot online to see if there are new virus data
signature updates &, if there are, downloads & unzips them
into f-prot's directory. I tested it & it worked fine, so I setup
Cron to do a check twice daily. Later, I'll probably cut down
on that, since all this is on my laptop & I normally don't let
laptop run all the time.
