Very good book!  I think it only covers up through OpenBSD 3.4 or 3.5 so
it won't have all the latest features, like the ruleset optimizer.  He may
have added info on his website though.

On the list to read...

Really enjoyed this one.  Easy to follow, would be a great introductory
book for someone new to OpenBSD.

Enjoy the reading!
