[geeks] Security People haven't heard of OpenBSD!

[Gregory Leblanc]

EGADS!  I'm trying to get things going so that my dad's can VPN into his
office to do some work on the mainframes there.  They require you to
have things like "firewall software" and such set up if you're on
broadband, and want to use the internet VPN.  Sounds reasonable enough,
right?  They wanted to know what firewall software I was running, so I
told them 'ipf on OpenBSD'.  They'd never heard of it!  What kind of
security people haven't heard of OpenBSD?!?  What's even more amazing is
that this shop runs a -highly- mixed environment.  I've been down in
their server room, and it's got zServers, an E10K, Alpha, PA-RISC, and
all of the desktops at IT HQ seem to be running Win2k.  Yet they've not
heard of OpenBSD...
