A year ago, first of 1.4.0 serie was released. Overall download counter for IPCop on sourceforge is now more than 2.500.000. Thank to all who make IPCop work, to all who contribute by supporting users, tracking bugs, writing code, doc, working on the background.

IPCop v1.4.9 is only bug fixes and is released with minor changes from 1.4.9test1. It can be downloaded from Here or on SF.net

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. 1.4.9 update installation will mainly reload firewall rules. A reboot is not necessary.

fcdsl package is unchanged since 1.4.8

Download files names slightly change : - for possible other architecture support in the futur - to differenciate from 1.4.9test1 where files were wrongly uploaded with 1.4.9 name

The changes made since v1.4.8 are : - add Danish language update missed in 1.4.7/1.4.8 - add quotes around update button to fix Norwegian, Swedish and Vietnamese - replace uptime for upgraded installation - fix security issue with addon-langs permissions in upgraded installs - add Traditional Chinese to webgui interface - fix conditional test for port range in setreservedports - fix lang.pl missing in backup-exclude - patch pcre-4.5 for CAN-2005-2491 - modify logwatch not to alert on requests for null.gif - upgrade squid to 2.5.STABLE11 CAN-2005-{2794,2796,2917} - hide only start/stop buttons on index.cgi when pppsettings used and valid. A profile may be invalid but not used. - display profile name only when a profile is used - dhcp.cgi Add error message to cover situation where Interface is Enabled, but Start and End address are both blank. - check floppy disk media before attempting a backup to avoid a stalled tar for ever - upgrade eciadsl to 0.11 - patch umount CAN-2005-2876 - make optionfw.cgi work with ping option

For those who install 1.4.9 test1 update and want to be same as final 1.4.9, run perl -e "require '/var/ipcop/lang.pl'; &Lang::BuildCacheLang" to update cache-lang and use texts updated.

For those who install 1.4.9 test1 from iso and want to be same as final 1.4.9, run /bin/sed -i -e '/optionsfw.cgi/s/# ,/ ,/' /var/ipcop/header.pl and the new optionsfw.cgi under firewall menu should be displayed and work.

For those who want to compile IPCop, some files may be unavailable on original URL. You could find an alternate place to download with google 'file-name ipcop' keywords.
