You're not describing comparable things. OpenBSD is a specific BSD-based
distribution. I'm sure you're probably running some specific Linux
distribution, but you don't state that. Linux by itself doesn't have
ANY network services turned on by default. So which Linux distribution
(and what version) were you running, and what serious problems did saint
find?
