Version 0.5.4 RELEASED !!!

The new redWall Firewall Version 0.5.4 is released !

Let's see what we've got in this release :-)
- new kernel 2.4.26-ow2
- small and tiny nms system (midas)
- a lot of bug fixes (thanks to erol yildiz and cassiano surek for reporting them)
- some additions (really nice tools !!) based on feedback of djbfan
- improved restore-config
(you can now use the hard disk to store the bootconfig (and of course the configuration itself if you like )information.. Just adapt the save-config.conf file to your needs... Any device in /dev/discs and /dev/floppy/0 is valid (you can use the old device names if you like)!... During boot... The restore-config script searches all detected partitions and the /dev/fd0 for a valid "bootconfig"... If found it starts extracting the configuration based on the information gathered from the "bootconfig"
- ftp server (very secure ftpd) in case you'd like to use the redWall as a webserver for instance :-)
- central syslogging (using mysql and a web based syslog console)
- a whole lot more... ;-)
