I am strictly an amateur geek having a bit of fun so am not very
worried about down time. For me it is much better to be as safe as
possible as I am less likely to be pouring over logs looking for
suspicious activities - and when I do I might not recognise them.

So, I've had IPv6 configured how I believe it should be for some time,
but every time I test it (which is limited by the lack of IPv6
connectivity by my backward ISP), it doesn't seem to be working, in or
out. Can anyone help me getting it working?
I've replaced my IP allocation with 'beef' below.
I've flushed my ip6table rules for now

Hi all.
Have had bitfolk recommended and it has been said that custom ISOs can
be uploaded, which I've also read on the website.
OpenBSD 5.9 and 6.0, last and current releases, have native Xen PVHVM
drivers. Is this enough for me to be able to install OpenBSD into a
guest instance?
Am I also right in my understanding that the guest OS must have an ext2
or 3 boot partition? OpenBSD uses ffs, so I'll have to find a work
around there, I assume?
TL;DR
I'm looking for a VPS service, based in the UK, that I can run OpenBSD
on. Can this be done with bitfolk?
