[Bastille-linux-discuss] psad-1.2.4 release

[Michael R. <cip...@ya...>]

psad-1.2.4 has just been released.  A masked version
of psad-1.2.4 is now included within the Gentoo
portage tree (with an unmasked version coming
shortly... thanks to Bryan Stine).  This release also
supports Red Hat 9 with an updated rpm, and Lenny
Cartier made a version of the rpm for Mandrake
systems.  Here are the changes:

- Added danger level to subject line in email alerts.
- Removed diskmond altogether since psad now handle
disk space thresholds directly.  This allows
filehandles to be handled properly.
- Added auto_block_ignore_ip() to prevent 0.0.0.0,
127.0.0.1, and local interface ips from being included
in auto blocking routines.
- Added Bit::Vector module to stop installation
warnings from Date::Calc.
- Made get_local_ips() called periodically since local
addresses may change (dhcp, etc.).
- Added installation code and init script for Gentoo
Linux.
- Bugfix for INIT_DIR in uninstall() routine in
install.pl.
- Bugfix for auto-blocking loop after timeouts are
hit.
- Added --status-dl [N] to display status information
only for those scans that reach at least [N].
