I love that a `Rexfile` is just a Perl DSL. Also, OpenBSD comes with Perl in the base system. So no new programming language had to be added to my mix for the configuration management system. Also, the `acme.sh` shell script is not a Bash but a standard Bourne shell script, so I didn't have to install an additional shell as OpenBSD does not come with the Bash pre-installed. +Other *BSD related posts are: + +[2016-04-09 Jails and ZFS with Puppet on FreeBSD](./2016-04-09-jails-and-zfs-on-freebsd-with-puppet.md) +[2022-07-30 Let's Encrypt with OpenBSD and Rex (You are currently reading this)](./2022-07-30-lets-encrypt-with-openbsd-and-rex.md) +[2022-10-30 Installing DTail on OpenBSD](./2022-10-30-installing-dtail-on-openbsd.md) +[2024-01-13 One reason why I love OpenBSD](./2024-01-13-one-reason-why-i-love-openbsd.md) + E-Mail your comments to `paul@nospam.buetow.org` :-) [Back to the main site](../) diff --git a/gemfeed/2024-01-13-one-reason-why-i-love-openbsd.md b/gemfeed/2024-01-13-one-reason-why-i-love-openbsd.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b52913e5 --- /dev/null +++ b/gemfeed/2024-01-13-one-reason-why-i-love-openbsd.md @@ -0,0 +1,71 @@ +# One reason why I love OpenBSD + +> Published at 2024-01-13T22:55:33+02:00 + +``` + . + A ; + | ,--,-/ \---,-/| , + _|\,'. /| /| `/|-. + \`.' /| , `;. + ,'\ A A A A _ /| `.; + ,/ _ A _ / _ /| ; + /\ / \ , , A / / `/| + /_| | _ \ , , ,/ \ + // | |/ `.\ ,- , , ,/ ,/ \/ + / @| |@ / /' \ \ , > /| ,--. + |\_/ \_/ / | | , ,/ \ ./' __:.. + | __ __ | | | .--. , > > |-' / ` + ,/| / ' \ | | | \ , | / + / |<--.__,->| | | . `. > > / ( +/_,' \\ ^ / \ / / `. >-- /^\ | + \\___/ \ / / \__' \ \ \/ \ | + `. |/ , , /`\ \ ) + \ ' |/ , V \ / `-\ + `|/ ' V V \ \.' \_ + '`-.
