1.132 louis 2584: The router to the outside world was an OpenBSD 2.3 box. It was involved
2585: in a "capture the flag" competition in which an entire room of crackers
2586: attempted to break into it and machines running other operating systems.
2587: The OpenBSD box was not broken into.
2588: <br>
2589: Almost 100 OpenBSD 2.3 CDROMs were sold (we ran out again). The primates
1.236 jose 2590: at <a href="http://www.monkey.org">monkey.org</a> brought 2.3
1.413 grunk 2591: "wire-frame" OpenBSD T-shirts to the conference and sold almost
1.132 louis 2592: 200 of them. The proceeds from the sales were donated to the OpenBSD project.

1.132 louis 2597: Theo de Raadt presented a talk entitled
2598: "Auditing software for security" about the OpenBSD security auditing
2599: team's process and the lessons the team learned. The talk concentrated
2600: on how our process fixes bugs -- not just holes -- since one never knows
2601: when 5 bugs will act together to become a hole.

1.132 louis 2607: At Usenix 1998 there was a strong OpenBSD presence both in the Freenix
2608: and normal tracks. Theo did a general talk about what the OpenBSD
2609: project offers. Angelos held a panel about IPSEC (which is quite an
2610: OpenBSD topic since IPSEC development at that time was so much further
2611: ahead in OpenBSD than anywhere else).
2612: <br>
2613: The terminal room PCs ran OpenBSD 2.3. We sold many CDROMs. The
1.413 grunk 2614: first style of OpenBSD T-shirt also sold quite well.
