I can only find this email address to contact anyone at OpenBSD.  My
question is simple and maybe you can help.
 
A few months ago for a short period of time, I installed and setup a
firewall on an i386 PC.  I believe it was OpenBSD I used.  It was my first
time using this OS.
 
What I remember most is that when setting up the firewall, I ran a command
that launched this series of detailed questions that the machine asked.  You
enter in the information and it proceeds to the next question, slowly
building you a firewall as these questions are answered.
 
In OpenBSD 4 I do not seem to have this.  It is the more common editing of
files manually using exact syntax.
 
So.
 
Was what I describe an older version of OpenBSD?  It was awesome because I
answered each question after a brief explanation on the screen of what the
question was asking and what kind of info I would need to enter in for an
answer.
 
I learned and setup a firewall in literally a 30 - 60 minute time frame and
had never used this before.
 
Unfortunately I did not document the OS or version and the PC has since been
erased and is in use somewhere else.
 
Can you tell me if this was indeed an earlier version that allowed the set
up of a firewall???
 
Much thanks for any info you can pass on.  :0)
