About... two decades ago I set up an OpenBSD box for my boss to use as a basic web host to pass stuff to clients.

The only time it failed -- the ONLY time -- was due to a full hard disk. Why was the hard disk full? Silly me, I forgot to implement some sort of logging discipline and a couple years' worth of logs of attempted exploits (mainly Windows NT exploits) glancing harmlessly off OpenBSD's hull had filled the disk.
