Linux Platforms to Add Tripwire Three suppliers of Linux operating systems plan to add Tripwire intrusion detection and prevention software to boost security.

SuSE includes the Academic Source Release of Tripwire, Version 1.2 in SuSE 6.3. It does however not include the commercial release 2.2.1. Neither do Red Hat or Caldera, AFAIK. Anyway, Tripwire say they will release their product as open source only in Q3, (that's what the partnership with Red Hat, Caldera, sgi and VA Linux is about) so there's no need to panic right now. There's nothing from stopping SuSE to include the newer version when it's actually there ... In the meantime, you could of course _purchase_ Tripwire 2.2.1, if you're not satisfied with the _free_ one in SuSE 6.3. I'd rather wait and go with open source. BTW, I read this list because I want to be informed of security issues with (SuSE) Linux. If I want to be informed of who is sent to jail for whatever reason, I go elsewhere, so please stop waisting bandwidth with off-topic rubbish.

??? You can download it for free (Linux/x86/2.2.1) at: http://www.tripwiresecurity.com/products/download.cfml

Oops. You're correct. Last time I checked for the Solaris version only (you might guess why - we got hit by Stacheldraht). The LINUX version is, in fact, free (as in free beer). Martin Leweling Institut fuer Planetologie, WWU Muenster, Germany
