The OmniOSce Association has announced the release of a new version of OmniOS, an open-source operating system for servers, with support for many popular Solaris and OpenSolaris technologies. The new release is labelled as version r151058 and comes with tool updates, new features and additional hardware support: "On the 4th of May 2026, the OmniOSce Association released a new stable version of OmniOS - the open-source enterprise server OS. The release comes with many tool updates, brand-new features and additional hardware support. New features since r151056: IPv6 networking has gained a fast path implementation, similar to that already present for IPv4 - this bypasses the data link services (DLS) layer for suitable traffic and improves throughput; the kernel MAC framework's softring polling code now correctly enforces its configured byte limit, and various accounting issues with fanout statistics and dual-stack TCP softrings have been corrected; disabling hardware checksum offload via dohwcksum now also disables Large Segment Offload (LSO), preventing transmission failures on certain interfaces; the Intel IOMMU code is now more informative when it encounters unknown remapping structures, and the immu-dmar-print debug option works again." See the brief release announcement and the comprehensive release notes for further information. Download (pkglist): omnios-r151058.iso (301MB, SHA256), omnios-r151058.usb-dd (401MB SHA256). |

EnGarde offers integrated intrusion detection, advanced kernel and network security features, and graphical auditing and reporting - all controlled through Guardian Digital WebTool, a simplified browser-based management system.
