Вышла новая версия OpenBSD. Это уже 16ый релиз на CD-ROM, и 17ый по ftp. Как и с предыдущими релизами, с этим релизом следует множество улучшений и новых возможностей, таких как:
- SMP support on OpenBSD/i386 and OpenBSD/amd64 platforms.
- New functionality:
o A cleaned up DHCP server and client implementation, now featuring privilege separation and safe defaults.
o A new NTP daemon written from scratch, which ought to fit the needs of most NTP users.
o pfctl(8) now provides a rules optimizer to help improve filtering speed.
o The packet filter, pf(4), now supports nested anchors.
o tcpdrop(8), a command to drop TCP connections.
o Memory file systems created by the mount_mfs(8) command now can be populated immediately after creation.
o New hotplugd(8) daemon and hotplug(4) device that watch for newly attached devices.
- Improved NFS performance and reliability.
- Shared libraries and gcc 3.3.2 on the OpenBSD/hppa port.
- Privilege separation or revocation for the following programs:
o afsd(8)
o mopd(8)
o pppoe(8)
o rbootd(8)
o dhcrelay(8), dhclient(8), and dhcpd(8)
- Over 2700 ports, 2500 pre-built packages.
- Many improvements for security and reliability (look for the red print in the complete changelog).
- As usual, many improvements in manual pages and other documentation.
- OpenSSH 3.9
