1.2 deraadt 83: At this conference, Theo presented an evening talk which basically turned

1.6 deraadt 94: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
1.12 deraadt 95: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
96: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
97: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1.32 deraadt 98: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
99: <p>
1.12 deraadt 100: The terminal room PC's ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The

1.2 deraadt 106: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
107: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
108: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
109: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
110: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.6 deraadt 115: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
116: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers

1.32 deraadt 118: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
119: <p>
1.6 deraadt 120: Almost 100 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates at <a

154: protocol and experiences from the implementation of <strong>isakmpd</strong>,
1.25 deraadt 155: an IKE implementation funded by Ericsson Radio Systems and developed

179: An OpenBSD BOF was held one evening, led by Theo de Raadt.
180: <p>
1.31 deraadt 181: The terminal room ran OpenBSD 2.4 on 45 machines. Obviously people's
182: trust in OpenBSD has increased, since numerous people who have not
183: used the Usenix terminal room (due to security problems that have come
184: from such use in the past) before were seen using the machines.

! 193: OpenBSD was represented as one of about a dozen IPsec implementations
! 194: who were tested for interoperability. The tests were successful, both for
