Hi, JFYI! Bye, LenZ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Lenz Grimmer SuSE GmbH mailto:grimmer@suse.de Schanzaeckerstr. 10 http://www.suse.de/~grimmer 90443 Nuernberg, Germany ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2000 18:05:58 +0100 (MET) From: Marc Heuse <marc@suse.de> To: suse-security@suse.com Subject: [suse-security] SuSEfirewall new beta available Hi, for all betatesters out there who use v1.5 or v1.6 of the SuSEfirewall package, there's v1.7 available which has an important bugfix. v0.4 from SuSEauditdisk should be available on the website as well within a few hours. v0.6 of SuSEcompartment is online already. CHANGES for v1.7 of SuSEfirewall: v1.7 09.01.00 (beta version) * Added -n to the lsof call to save time (thanks for reporting) * When SuSEfirewall could not start (e.g. interfaces not active) it would leave the system in an unusable way to communicate to any network unless successfully started. Affects v1.5 and v1.6 only. * Successful (un-)loading of SuSEfirewall is now logged to syslog. * New option FW_STOP_KEEP_ROUTING_STATE available in /etc/rc.firewall to keep routing enabled when stopping the firewall. This is only for diald or autodialing ISDN stuff and should *not* be used normally! http://www.suse.de/~marc Greets, Marc -- Marc Heuse, SuSE GmbH, Schanzaeckerstr. 10, 90443 Nuernberg E@mail: marc@suse.de Function: Security Support & Auditing "lynx -source http://www.suse.de/~marc/marc.pgp | pgp -fka" Key fingerprint = B5 07 B6 4E 9C EF 27 EE 16 D9 70 D4 87 B5 63 6C -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-security-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-security-help@suse.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
