One thing not mentioned is that #OpenRsync's origin is the #OpenBSD project (at least as far as I am aware! Correct me if I am wrong :-) )!

#OpenSSH 10.0 release notes: https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-10.0
In addition to removing DSA, this splits the user authentication code from the sshd-session binary into a separate sshd-auth binary. Also only #OpenBSD, this new sshd-authd is relinked on boot, just like sshd-session & sshd.

Just read a nice serie of blogposts about installing #freebsd on a laptop by @sgharms :
https://stevengharms.com/longform/my-first-freebsd/
At the same time, I’m finishing reading cover to cover the excellent Absolute FreeBSD by the legendary @mwl
While I’m not much into the file systems, I do really appreciate all the explanations about packages, ports and poudriere.
I hope he will release a new edition of Absolute OpenBSD so I can compare both systems.
I don’t know why but I feel that #OpenBSD is more minimalistic
I have a mini Intel Atom-powered home server in my house.
However, I’ve overlooked two things:
How do I back up data and keep it safe (from both security and quality perspectives)?
I’m still a newbie at GnuPG Privacy Guard. How do I secure the backup of my private keys?

rsync replaced with openrsync on macOS Sequoia #openbsd
https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20250408062403
Tired of all the insanity out there?
You can look forward to a new #openbsd release soon.
Prepare by reading "You Have Installed OpenBSD. Now For The Daily Tasks." https://nxdomain.no/~peter/openbsd_installed_now_for_the_daily_tasks.html
Something I missed: Mac OS sequoia is shipping with openrsync, the #OpenBSD version of rsync, created by Kristaps Dzonsons.
https://derflounder.wordpress.com/2025/04/06/rsync-replaced-with-openrsync-on-macos-sequoia/
Of course this is due to Apple not liking GPL V3, which is used by the latest version of rsync...
