1.132 louis 1400: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved

1402: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
1403: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
1404: <br>
1405: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates

1414: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
1415: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated

1424: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
1425: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
1426: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
1427: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
