Hello,
This is to announce the release of Trustix Secure Linux 2.1, nicknamed
"Horizon". It is the second release in the Trustix 2 series.
Its main purpose is to serve as a stability release, and it is the natural
successor of Trustix 2.0. In addition, we have added a few more features
including Samba 3, IBM's stack protector and the XFS filesystem. We have also
updated most of the packages to the latest stable version.
So what does this release feature?
* Swup 2.3
* Samba 3.0.2
* Perl 5.8.3
* PHP 4.3.4
* Mysql 4.0.18
* Postfix 2.0.18
* MIT Kerberos v5
* DKMS
* Postgresql 7.4.1
* OpenSSH 3.8p1
* XFS filesystem support
* IBM's stack protector
and a lot more.
