!!! Attention : a full v1.4.4 installation (full = from the full ISO, not an update) is broken with Pusal DSL Card !!! This issue will be solved in a forthcoming patch. Regarding the update, you can use the 2.4.27 kernel, which is compatible with Pulsar card.

IPCop 1.4.4 is now available at Sourceforge and in the download page here.

As usual, this version can be installed as an update from previous v1.4.x versions or with a ready-to-go ISO for a fresh install.

Update is cut in two files in an attempt to solve the abort message 'This is not an authorised update.' because there is not enough free space available on root partition. It may not have enough free space on the root partition for disk size smaller than approximately 900 MB to warrant the install of the update. With more than 30 MB free, you will be able to install the two updates. You may create more free space on your disk by removing the part of the kernel you do not use (2.4.27-smp for most of us). In this case, type : rm -rf /lib/modules/2.4.27-smp and don't forget the -smp termination. df must display more than 30MB available for the root partition to be able to install the updates.

If installation fail, report the error message found in /var/log/http/error_log

Some changes were made to make IPCop more add-on friendly for next releases. But v1.4.3 and v1.4.4 update may broke every add-ons: - because header.pl is updated - due the 'use strict' on cgi script to enforce correct scripting rules --> Install only add-on updated for v1.4.3/v1.4.4 <--

With small disk less than 900 MB, it may be particulary difficult to apply the update if: - a full v1.4.1 was installed due to the restricted place for root in this version - who have installed the fcdsl package for friztdsl modems In both cases, the full install from iso may be necessary with those small disks.

Short changes summary

Interface - sound checkbox option for ip-up/ip-down - optional refresh for index.cgi - fix a bug that caused a fixed lease to always be Enabled after being edited in dhcp.cgi - improve reload in the standard rc.local.firewall : it is at the user charge to report a change after upgrade - add remark field in dhcp.cgi - fix external Access page for port ranges and include a remark field - fix a typo on rc.red with GATEWAY when stopping connection with RFC1483 and atm adsl modem - lock rc.updatered usage by the first call until the script end to continue the second. Sometime down was ending after new - add an option to Dyndns behind IPCop. It must not be used with dial on demand for obvious reasons. - VPN fix with ESP group selection - VPN fix with .p12 certificate import - split header.pl in two parts: better speed for non cgi scripts, allow easier upgrade without breaking add-ons on futur releases - fix setup with DNS gateway - fix stack smashing attack with lspci -vv - fix shaping ceiling - restart VPN after doing a reset in the GUI - fix eagle-usb and isdn (remove CRLF for cmv files) - add no-ip group and empty domain in ddns.cgi - fix substring match for a VPN interface number with 2 digits - fix 2 perl security issues - add a option with 'dma' in syslinux menu during install (SiS chipset workaround) - support D-link DGE-528T ID as a r8169 clone - fix recent change in setddns.pl with no-ip - revert to gd-2.0.20 to make trafic graph work again

Upgraded packages - bewan unicorn driver to 0.9.0 : better synch - dhcp to 3.0.2 (bugfix for rules parsing) - dnsmasq to 2.20 - eagle-usb 2.1.1 (eagle III support) - eciadsl-nortek 0.10 new package - kernel 2.4.29 : many local security issues fixed - libpng to 1.2.8 (crash risk with 1.2.7) - openswan 1.0.9 - squid to v2.5 STABLE9. Solve some security issues or failures - tar 1.13.25 Fix for CAN-2002-0399 - Replace zlib 1.2.1 patched version with V1.2.2

Compilation - add md5sum checking during source files loading and compilation - remove gcc-2.95.3 to build the kernel and use gcc-3.3.4 for both userspace and kernel - better bash detection during compilation - strip should not follow symlink resolving in building machine files - suppress strip error for non stripable files - silent Openssl warnings with deprecated -m486 option
