If you were to find a provider that used/supported OpenBSD on their servers,
hold on to them like gold. I can't imagine anyone is using OpenBSD though. It
doesn't scale well in comparison to FreeBSD, which is more than likely the *BSD
that you will find being used. This in my personal opinion is the best choice
for large hosting companies due to the stability and speed.
For what it's worth, I use a large DSL line with static ip's and host my own
sites (9 currently) on OpenBSD. Gotta love blowfish.
