To use this translation go into to the WebTool Configuration module, click on your username (normally 'admin'), and select Italian from the drop-down.
* A new "Guardian Digital WebTool API Guide" document on engardelinux.org.This document is intended for people who are interested in extending the Guardian Digital WebTool by writing new interfaces/modules and for people who are interested in using the API for other applications.
This document was written by Ankit Patel with contributions from Ryan W. Maple.
* Updated PCI tables and better detection of more recent hardware.
* Updated glibc (2.3.6), kernel (2.6.17.7), and perl (5.8.8) packages.
* The latest stable versions of asterisk (1.2.10), bacula (1.38.11), clamav (0.88.3), gdb (6.5), gnupg (1.4.4), john (1.7.2), mrtg (2.14.5), postfix (2.2.11), procps (3.2.7), samba (3.0.23a), snort (2.4.5) and zaptel (1.2.7).
* A couple of new packages:
- freepops (0.0.99)
FreePOPs is a daemon that acts as a local pop3 server, translating local pop3 requests to remote http requests to supported webmails.
- hwdata (0.177) and pciutils (2.2.1)
hwdata contains various hardware identification and configuration data, such as the pci.ids database and MonitorsDb databases. The pciutils package contains various utilities for inspecting and setting devices connected to the PCI bus.
- perl-Authen-Smb (0.91)
This package supplies a perl module for authenticating against an SMB password server.
- squid (2.6.STABLE1)
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients, supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single, non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests.
