The new @BoxyBSD platform gained some new features for a better #BSD experience!

* The new portal now also finally supports VNC access to your BSD based VPS instances!

* You can finally select ISO files which offers you even to install any BSD or #OpenSolaris version from scratch or to install your VPS instance based on your personal needs without relying on a ready2use image. More images can be added upon request quickly. Simply get in touch with @gyptazy

* You can now get up to 2 free VPS instances to test and evaluate HA setups, multi-region setups etc.

* Extended DN42 peering (where you can also use your DN42 IPv4 addresses)

This is created by @gyptazy and if you're interested into more information, just come to the FOSDEM 2026 for a chat!

The new BoxyBSD platform now offers VNC access and ISO selection which brings in several new possibilities for users.

This new community event brings together everyone who’s passionate about open virtualization technologies, whether it’s Proxmox VE, XCP-ng, bhyve, Harvester, or any of the countless projects that make open infrastructure thrive. It’s about sharing experiences, learning from each other, and connecting with those who build and rely on open platforms every day.

We start the evening with two talks:

* "Enterprise-Ready? How people use Proxmox VE & Ceph" by Ronald Otto from Tuxis B.V.

* "BoxyBSD – Creating a free VPS hosting platform" by Florian Paul Azim Hoberg

from credativ GmbH

Afterwards, the space opens up for discussion, networking, and casual chats. If you like to join with a talk, please feel free to reach out to me.
