Configuration is very simple, direct and intuitive. It would be easy to duplicate this setup quickly.
Setup the main Ethernet device to reserve the first available IP address:
/etc/hostname.re0
inet 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0
Setup the name server resolution manually:
/etc/resolv.conf
search beandog.org nameserver 192.168.0.2 nameserver 205.171.3.25 nameserver 205.171.2.25
Setup the server's gateway:
/etc/mygate
192.168.0.1
The localhost name:
/etc/myname
d64.beandog.org
Configure the daemons to start up on boot:
/etc/rc.conf.local
dhcpd_flags=re0 pkg_scripts="dnsmasq dbus_daemon avahi_daemon" dnsmasq_flags= dbus_daemon_flags= avahi_daemon_flags=
Here's a very basic dhcpd configuration:
/etc/dhcpd.conf
option domain-name "beandog.org";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.2;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option routers 192.168.0.1;
range 192.168.0.3 192.168.0.254;
}
Setting up the OpenBSD server as a router only adds a few more changes. First of which, is to use a second NIC, and run the DHCP and DNS servers there.
Turn on network IP forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
Setup packet filtering in /etc/pf.conf:
pass out on re0 from em0:network to any nat-to (re0)
Set the second NIC's IP address manually:
inet 192.168.12.1 255.255.255.0
To preserve sanity, disable the PC speaker:
/etc/wsconsctl.conf
keyboard.bell.volume=0
