Vuurmuur 0.5.73 released
Hi everyone,
After the new site at http://www.vuurmuur.org/ I'm now pleased to
announce Vuurmuur version 0.5.73. This release both adds a number of new
features and fixes a lot of bugs. To start with the latter, many bugs in
the log and connection management were fixed. Also, Vuurmuur can handle
systems with nf_conntrack much better. There were lots of smaller fixes
all over the program.
In the new feature department there is support for NFQUEUE (which is
nice if you run Snort_inline), rule limits that are now optional for all
rules, and limits that can also be limited in minutes, hours or days.
Source (ftp://ftp.vuurmuur.org/releases/0.5.73/Vuurmuur-0.5.73.tar.gz),
Autopackage
(ftp://ftp.vuurmuur.org/releases/0.5.73/Vuurmuur-0.5.73.x86.package) and
Debian and Ubuntu packages
(http://www.vuurmuur.org/trac/wiki/InstallationDebian) are available.
Contributions or packages for other distro's such as Fedora or SUSE
would be very welcome! If you send them to me I will put them on the ftp
server.
I've pasted the full changelog below.
Regards,
Victor

Vuurmuur 0.5.72 released!
Vuurmuur 0.5.72 is finally released! It has taken way longer than I originally planned, but I've had a very busy year. People wanting to help in the development are very welcome!
Like described in the alpha announcements the main focus of this release was the connection killing options in Vuurmuur_conf. It requires the conntrack tool to be installed. You can find the release at the sourceforge project page and on the ftp server ftp://ftp.vuurmuur.org/releases/0.5.72/
Looking forward, I intend to add support for the NFQUEUE and CLASSIFY iptables targets. The former for advanced use of tools like Snort_inline in combination with Vuurmuur, the latter for easier traffic shaping. For more details about my ideas keep an eye on my blog at http://www.inliniac.net/blog/
