Wesley Mouedine Assaby runs OpenBSD

I’m Wesley Mouedine Assaby, a sysadmin living in Reunion Island, for those who don’t know, it is located in Indian Ocean, next to Mauritius.

I met OpenBSD system at a training about firewalling and SMTP (Postfix) in 2006, it was OpenBSD 4.0. I was impressed by using pf(4), it was elegant and simple as it is now.

So I brought OpenBSD to the company where I work—Aise Informatique. We use mainly Microsoft Windows and provide services based on OpenBSD:

• protect client’s networks using pf(4),
• run iked(8) for road warrior users,
• host mail using Postfix.

Now let me tell you about my personal projects.

I’ve published few articles in BSD magazine. Some of them in 2014 and 2013 archives. The most recent ones:

• Reinstall OpenBSD 5.7 (2015)
• Configure OpenBSD 5.4 Basic Services (2014)

Around the same time, in 2014, I’ve published a book (in French).

As you can see I’m very passionate about this operating system. I made OpenBSD Jumpstart to help newbies. I moderate Telegram community, if you’d like to join, just walk through the slides, there’s an invitation link. :)

I’m using OpenBSD to learn things like Ruby and ksh(1) scripting. I’m building a complete mail server solution based on built-in daemons like smtpd(8) and httpd(8). So stay tuned.

Find me on Twitter and GitHub.

Thanks!
