Your first stop ofcourse is to read the FAQ's on the OpenBSD website.

http://openbsd.org/

Then read the man pages installed on your system, or you can read them online at the website above.

Not sure exactly how to run X on OpenBSD, since I never seen a reason to install X on this OS, As it is best used for Firewalls, routers. Should not be more difficult than on most systems running X.

Apache has been chroot, which increases its security. You will probably need to install mod_dav-1.0.x.tgz to give Apache WebDAV support. Most likely will need to install the SSL support for apache also.

Sendmail should be able to handle your SMTP, just create your sendmail.cf file. You will likely need to decide on a package for POP support.

cas

CAS(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    CAS(4)

NAME

     cas -- Cassini/Cassini+ (GigaSwift) Ethernet device driver

SYNOPSIS

     cas* at pci? dev ? function ?

     Configuration of PHYs may also be necessary.  See mii(4).

DESCRIPTION

     The cas driver provides support for the Sun Cassini and Cassini+ (GigaSwift) and the National Semiconductor Saturn Ethernet hardware found in
     Sun UltraSPARC machines and Sun GigaSwift PCI cards.

     Cards supported by this driver include:
	   o   Sun Gigaswift Ethernet (SX fibre variants)
	   o   Sun Gigaswift Ethernet (UTP variants)
	   o   Sun quad Gigaswift Ethernet

SEE ALSO

     brgphy(4), gentbi(4), gphyter(4), ifmedia(4), intro(4), mii(4), ifconfig(8)

     Sun Microsystems, Cassini+ ASIC Specification, http://www.sun.com/processors/manuals/cs_plus.pdf.

HISTORY

     The cas driver first appeared in OpenBSD 4.1.  NetBSD support was added in NetBSD 6.0.

AUTHORS

     The cas driver was written for OpenBSD by Mark Kettenis <kettenis@openbsd.org>, based on the gem(4) driver, and ported to NetBSD by Julian
     Coleman <jdc@NetBSD.org>.

BUGS

     The cas driver does not support any of the advanced features of the Cassini chip.

     On the SX fibre variants of the hardware, the link may stay down if media options apart from autoselect are chosen.
