Updated Ipsysctl-tutorial
Updated version of the ipsysctl-tutorial released. For further information about what has happened, look at the ChangeLog. The biggest changes are fixed PDF and PS versions of the document, fixed some static links in the chunky.tgz and html.tgz packages and added proper ID tags to all sections in the document.
Updated iptables-tutorial
A new version of the iptables-tutorial has been released. This version has moved most, if not all, external links to the other resources chapter, as well as all links to scripts to the example scripts chapter. This was done for cleanliness of the tutorial. It also contains a lot of updates to some of the matches and target explanations, and the .tgz packets have been improved for the downloaders.
Modified/added stuff on iptables-tutorial frontpage
Filed under: Frozentux.net, Iptables, Linux, Netfilter
The iptables-tutorial frontpage has been modified to some extent. Mainly added upcoming translations, and translations already available. If anyone would be interested to make a translation, they are more than welcome to contact me. Also, I would like to thank everyone who has signed up their interest/non-interest in a printed copy of a book of the iptables-tutorial. Everyone who has signed their interest, and e-mail address will shortly receive a mail letting them know more about this. Everyone who has signed up a non-interest and e-mail address will receive a thank you mail for their participation. I will however, continue to keep the interest page open.
Added Miscellany section
A miscellany section has been added, containing lots of junk and other stuff that I am no longer developing, or that I have written previously. If anyone is interested in using any of the code, they are welcome to. This could mainly be looked upon as a junkyard of more or less useful scrap.
Finally a new Ipsysctl tutorial (version 1.0.3)
Finally a new version of the Ipsysctl tutorial. This version contains some updates, such as explanation of jiffies, arp_filter and details about icmp_ratemask and ratelimit. The biggest changes however, are the Postscript and PDF formats which are back. I will probably not maintain the PDF format, but since it
magically works again, it is included. There are also a lot of internal changes to the documents that will not show. For a complete listing of all the changes read the <A HREF="http://ipsysctl-tutorial.frozentux.net/ChangeLog">ChangeLog</A>. you will find the document <A HREF="http://ipsysctl-tutorial.frozentux.net/">here</A>.
Iptables tutorial 1.1.18 released!
Filed under: Frozentux.net, Iptables, Linux, Netfilter
This is a fast release with some minor changes and updates. Since I did a reinstall of Debian at home, I was forced to compile the last version on an old redhat installation. Apparently, this created tons of troubles with blackened out images, deep links crashed, and so on. This version contains minor updates of differents sorts as well, and the old deep links should now work again. For a detailed list of the new changes, have have a look at the <A HREF="http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/ChangeLog">ChangeLog</A>. The tutorial is available at <A HREF="http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net">http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net</A>.
Added V@csin reselling
This day the V@csin retail section was added. It was a long time coming, and it is finally here. V@csin is an excellent antivirus and antispam solution for all companies. I have by now personally used the V@csin solution for close to half a year, and it is currently blocking circa 13.000 spams per month, and only some 200-250 spams get through per month. That is, some 400-450 spams per day is blocked, while less than 10 spams per day get through. If you are interested, look at the <a href="http://www.frozentux.net/vacsin.php">V@csin</a> page on this site.
Iptables tutorial 1.1.17 released
Filed under: Frozentux.net, Iptables, Linux, Netfilter
The iptables-tutorial has finally been released in a new version. This version contains several minor updates, such as fixed admonition images, spelling errors, garbled programlistings and some variables to cohere with the explanations in the tutorial. This version also adds a prerequisites section, more detailed explanations on how to list rulesets, and some minor explanations. For a detailed list of the new changes, have have a look at the <A HREF="http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/ChangeLog">ChangeLog</A>.

Miscellany update
Two new scripts added to the miscellany section, just for fun. I will add more later on, which may be a little bit more useful to you. Also, as some of you may have noticed, I have been very quiet for a long time. There are things happening that will take some time more to finish, that will hopefully make people a little bit happy in the future. As some has also noticed, there is the new banner on top of the page which points to a site I am partially related to working on. Hopefully, this will not cause too much of a problem for people:).
Updated backend on frozentux.net
Yes, I am still alive. The backend on frozentux.net was updated to simplify adding news, etcetera in the future. To all of those still waiting for a reply to their mail, sorry about that, but I am still trying to catch up to mail from christmas. For several personal reasons, I have been and will be unable to maintain the different documents on this site at a much slower pace than previously. If you find any problems in any documents, etc, on this site, you are more than welcome to send patches. It would be most apreciated, since you will otherwise have to wait for quite some time before your bugreport/problem is solved.
