<BR>As Mark is away on vacation I'll announce the new alpha5 snapshot ready
<BR>for testing..... For the brave of heart the changes are listed below. But
<BR>believe me there are more new features to come before we go into the beta
<BR>stage.
<BR>
<BR>Mark is back in a couple of weeks, in which we'll buckle down to the
<BR>1.3.1beta series and get it out the door.
<BR>
<BR>The MD5 sums are:-
<BR>
<BR>86768bb6136902ed93419521d06946a7 ipcop-1.3.1alpha5.iso
<BR>0732e89a84b8c0ac055e0d1083e2d071 ipcop-1.3.1alpha5.tar.gz
<BR>
<BR>And they are available as ever from
<BR>

<BR>
<BR>Changes include....
<BR>
<BR>* SNORT is now available for all interfaces, and is now supporting the
<BR> ability to download new snort rulesets through the GUI.
<BR>
<BR>* The NTP setup (time) in the system page now includes an 'instant update'
<BR> feature as well as client support for local clients to obtain their time
<BR> from IPCop.
<BR>
<BR>* SYSLOGD support ! This allows logging to a remote server with syslogd.
<BR>
<BR>* Integrated logwatch summaries, with alterations to the log page.
<BR>
<BR>* Web Backup - Create, download, upload, and restore configuration
<BR> archives through web interface on the System/Backup tab. Supports
<BR> multiple backup sets. The backup floppy functionality remains as is.
<BR>
<BR>* BLUE Interface (a.k.a Wireless) currently uses an ethernet driver that
<BR> expects an access point attached to it. Future work will allow real
<BR> wireless
<BR> cards and not require an AP, but that work is yet on an unknown schedule.
<BR> The 'wireless' setup is done via the services menu and you configure the
<BR> allowable devices via MAC address or IP address (or both for added
<BR> security).
<BR>
<BR>* CIPE VPN - CIPE is now a supported VPN tunnel. CIPE is configured under
<BR> the VPN section and operates as an IPIP tunnel. CIPE is especially helpful
<BR> as it can operate over the BLUE interface and provides added security.
<BR>
<BR>* Edit Hosts - It's now possible for IPCop to add entries into the
<BR> /etc/hosts file via this. Accessible via the services section you can
<BR> add hosts and domainnames to it. The additional bonus is that DHCP uses
<BR> these hostnames too if it matches the IP address.
<BR>
<BR>* DHCP - now allows a 'next server' address and 'filename' so that IPCop
<BR> can provide additional information to a DHCP client that enables
<BR> remoteboot. The 'next server' address is a TFTP server, and the 'filename'
<BR> is the boot filename for the client.
<BR>
<BR>* IPCop's BOOT disk is now generated with SYSLINUX rather than LILO so that
<BR> more space is available on the boot disk. So with this change the boot
<BR> disk is now an MSDOS filesystem. This now integrates the usbfd image, so
<BR> there's now only one boot disk for all floppy drives.
<BR>
<BR>* Some more of IPCop's CGI scripts are now using the port forwarding idea of
<BR> icons to represent enabled/disabled, edit, and remove functionality. This
<BR> will present a more consistent interface.
<BR>
<BR>KNOWN BUGS
<BR>
<BR>1. There's a bug in dhcp.cgi that's preventing the settings being saved
<BR> correctly. (Fixed in CVS).
<BR>
<BR>2. The ownership of /home/httpd/html/backup/ directory on the iso is wrong,
<BR> and needs to be nobody:nobody to allow the Web Backup feature to work.
<BR> (Fixed in CVS).
<BR>
<BR>3. DHCP in red interface is broken. You need to untaint </etc/dhcpc/*.info>
<BR> before passing it to unlink. (Fixed in CVS).
<BR>
<BR>4. Bug in logs.cgi/summary.dat
<BR>
<BR>Thanks to Gilles Espinasse, Alan Hourihane, Tim Butterfield and Robert Kerr
