Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] IPTables NAT module broken in DL 1.2 ?

[Jasper S. <ja...@si...>]

Hmmmm... 

Well I'm going to use DL as a firewall/gateway (shorewall, *Swan, Squid,
etc.). And IMHO 2.6 is more volatile then 2.4. Take this for example:
http://www.debian.org/security/2007/dsa-1356 . Don't get me wrong; I use 2.6
for plenty of production servers. But for the hub of my network I prefer
2.4. I want something rocksolid and I don't need any of the new features in
2.6. So I ask myself (and you guys :-) ) what is the gain for me ?

Of course I could be terribly ignorant :) So please share any opinions you
guys have on this subject.

Kind regards,

Jasper

Quite a few people are currently working on it (DL 1.3 that is), including
me.
I'm sure things will be progressing faster once summer is over and people
get bored. ;-)

I will like to release a new 1.2 version in the next couple of weeks but
we need to make a decision on this issue first.
