NEW • Development Release: m0n0wall 1.3 Beta 5 |
| A new beta release of m0n0wall 1.3 was announced yesterday. The development changelog of the FreeBSD-based mini firewall lists the following improvements: "Added siproxd for transparent SIP proxying and masquerading and simple registrar service; added vr(4) driver VLAN fix (for ALIX, etc.); sisX interface names are now automatically changed to vrX when running on ALIX; added reset button driver for ALIX; upgraded ipfilter to 4.1.23; fixed FIN handling in ipnat FTP proxy; changed logo, license and footer to include registered trademark sign. m0n0wall 1.3b is based on FreeBSD 6.x and has better hardware support than the FreeBSD 4.x-based versions (up to version 1.23), as well as a few new features. However, it also has higher hardware requirements." Interested beta testers can download the CD image from here: cdrom-1.3b5.iso (8.3MB, MD5). |

| About m0n0wall |
| m0n0wall is a project aimed at creating a complete, embedded firewall software package that, when used together with an embedded PC, provides all the important features of commercial firewall boxes (including ease of use) at a fraction of the price (free software). m0n0wall is based on a bare-bones version of FreeBSD, along with a web server (thttpd), PHP and a few other utilities. The entire system configuration is stored in one single XML text file to keep things transparent. m0n0wall is probably the first UNIX system that has its boot-time configuration done with PHP, rather than the usual shell scripts, and that has the entire system configuration stored in XML format. |
