Hi,

I'm totally new to Unix administration. I've been an occasional Unix user 
before. This time I would like to install OpenBSD so I can test IP Filter 
(which is already compiled in the kernel).

My problem is I don't know how to setup it, after it's installed. Linux 
and I think other BSDs come with generalized rc files, man pages 
installed, etc. but OpenBSD doesn't. 

Does anyone have some ideas, where to get the information for setting up 
OpenBSD or if I should better install other Unix implementation and 
recompile/port IP Filter?

Thanks in advance
-Martin
