Eddy, is a little ant. The ant is small, powerfull and has a very good predisposition to work hard. So it is very similar to miniBSD, which is born to be small because it should be fitted on a small medium, powerfull because it is FreeBSD based and the work attitude remembers us that miniBSD is usually employed in hard routing/firewall/vpn tasks without so many bells and whistle :-)

But even Eddy resembles the little FreeBSD daemon in some small details. Do you see which ones (check here) :-) ?

The name Eddy is in honor to my first son, Edoardo, born on 03-07-2005
