OpenBSD 5.1 Released: OAMP Updated

OpenBSD 5.1 was released last week, so the update is a bit overdue. HiR's Secure OpenBSD + AMP guide has been updated. OpenBSD 4.x is officially unsupported now, so we've dropped the 4.x parts from the guide and refined the rest. Since we've started covering the setup of an AMP stack on OpenBSD, the process has gotten considerably easier. OpenBSD is a completely viable and stable environment for running almost any PHP/MySQL web app, with a little extra consideration given to the chroot environment and Suhosin hardening patches while you're setting up your applications or programming new ones.
