The following reported bugs from bugs.engardelinux.org are fixed in this release:

* #0000064 ADSL ppoe problem
* #0000066 Aliased eth0:X interfaces do not work with Shorewall

Several other bugs are fixed in this release as well.

New features include:

* Source packages are now available via the Guardian Digital Secure Network using APT. To use this functionality:

1) Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list:
rpm-src gdsn://updates.guardiandigital.com/GDSNROOT rapier core

2) Update:
# apt-get update

3) Install the source package of your choice:
# apt-get source

NOTE: You must have the rpm-build and rpm-devel packages installed before you can install source packages.

* Three new SELinux booleans: mysql_network (Allow the MySQL daemon to use a network socket), sshd_anyport (Allow the SSH daemon to bind to a port other than 22), and httpd_content_over_ftp (Allow vsftpd to read/write /home/httpd files).

You may toggle these booleans with setsebool:

# setsebool (true | false)

* The latest stable versions of MySQL (5.0.20a), gnupg (1.4.3), php5 (5.1.2), rsync (2.6.8), samba (3.0.22) and syslog-ng (1.6.10).

* A new package for ruby (1.8.4).

All new users downloading EnGarde Secure Linux for the first time or users who use the LiveCD environment should download this release.
