I suspect you'll pick it up pretty easily if you have any past experience
with SunOS 4, which was based on 4.3 BSD. Non-SYSV init scripts may trip
you up a little, although FreeBSD has been moving to an "almost SYSV" sort
of setup with /etc/rc.d and /usr/local/etc/rc.d directories; dunno if
OpenBSD has followed suit. In general the *BSD distributions tend to be
very well documented, both online and inside the OS.
