[ANNOUNCE] conntrack-tools 1.4.5 release

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

The Netfilter project proudly presents:

    conntrack-tooks 1.4.5

This release includes several fixes since last release and also several
enhancements for the conntrackd daemon:
 * new synproxy support
 * manpages updates
 * improved logging support (both stdout/stderr and log files)
 * new mdns ct helper
 * some more messages on what the daemon is doing
 * deprecate unix backlog configuration
 * drop old/obsolete/deprecated conntrackd.conf config options
 * improved support for UPnP in the ssdp ct helper
 * improvements to the relationship with libsystemd
 * add stronger TCP flags support, some weirdness are fixed by this

This release includes the new `StartupResync <on/off>` config option, which
instructs conntrackd to request a complete conntrack table resync
against the other
node at startup. This is useful to get in sync with another node which has
been running while we were down.

If you are updating your conntrackd deployment to this release from a very old
one, mind the deprecated config options. You may be required to refresh your
conntrackd.conf config file.

In the case of the conntrack CLI tool:
 * new support for IPv6 NAT

In the case of the nfct CLI tool:
 * some improvements to the build (-z lazy)

Please note you need libnetfilter-conntrack version >= 1.0.7 to build
conntrack-tools version 1.4.5.

See changelog that comes attached to this email for more details.
