One of the neat things about OpenBSD... firewalling is built in.  It
takes about 5 minutes or less after the machine is booted for the first
time to lock down additional services, and then set up the stateful
packet inspection firewall to make sure only the right IP ranges can hit
the right services (and further, that the host itself can only
*initiate* certain kinds of connections to specific hosts)
