Linux implements some of the capabilities from POSIX 1003.1e and added some more. Therefore you get that warning on OpenBSD and not on Linux. You may just ignore it. I don't know why you only get binaries on your Ubuntu machine and not on the OpenBSD one. Are both reachable in the same way from the internet? Does the OpenBSD host has pf enabled with blocks to the ports opened by nepenthes? Regards, Markus
