<P><B>Date:</B> Sat, 24 Jun 2000 18:23:01 -0700<BR>
<B>From:</B> "Jordan K. Hubbard" &lt;jkh@freebsd.org&gt;<BR>
<B>Subject:</B>FreeBSD 3.5 now available for x86</P>
<p>I'm pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE,
the very LAST in 3.x-STABLE branch technology. Following the release
of FreeBSD 3.4 in December, 1999, many bugs were fixed, important
security issues dealt with, and even a few new features added.
Please see the <a href="notes.html">release notes</a> for more
information.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE is available at <a
href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/">ftp.FreeBSD.org</a> and
various <a href="../../handbook/mirrors.html">FTP
mirror sites</a> throughout the world. It can also be ordered on CD
from <a href="http://www.FreeBSDMall.com/">The FreeBSD Mall</a>,
from where it will be shipping soon on a 4 CD set containing
installation bits for x86 architecture, as well as a lot of
other material of general interest to programmers and end-users alike</p>
<p>We can't promise that all the mirror sites will carry the rather large
installation (660MB) image, but it will at least be available from:</p>
<p><a
href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/3.5-install.iso">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/3.5-install.iso</a></p>
<p>along with the more traditional 3.5-RELEASE bits. If you can't
afford the CDs, are impatient, or just want to use it for evangelism
purposes, then by all means download the ISO, otherwise please do
continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing one of its
official CD releases from BSDi.</p>
<p>The official FTP distribution site for FreeBSD is:</p>
<blockquote><a
href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/</a></blockquote>
<p>Or via the WEB pages at:</p>
<blockquote><a
href="http://www.FreeBSDMall.com/">http://www.FreeBSDMall.com/</a>
and<br>
<a href="http://www.freebsd.org/">http://www.freebsd.org</a></blockquote>
<p>And directly from BSDi:</p>
<blockquote>BSDi<br>

Concord CA, 94520 USA<br>
Phone: +1 925 674-0783<br>
Fax: +1 925 674-0821<br>
Email: info@cdrom.com<br>
WWW: http://www.cdrom.com/</blockquote>
<p>Additionally, FreeBSD is available via anonymous FTP from <a href="../../handbook/mirrors.html">mirror sites</a>
in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria,
Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Elbonia, Estonia, Finland, France,
Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Korea,
Latvia, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Russia,
Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, the Ukraine
and the United Kingdom (and quite possibly several others which I've
never even heard of :).</p>
<p>Before trying the central FTP site, please check your regional
mirror(s) first by going to:</p>
<p>ftp://ftp.&lt;yourdomain&gt;.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD</p>
<p>Any additional mirror sites will be labeled ftp2, ftp3 and so on.</p>
<p>The latest versions of export-restricted code for FreeBSD (2.0C or
later) (eBones and secure) are also being made available at the
following locations. Now that FreeBSD has export permission for
crypto from the United States government, you can get it from
these locations or from ftp.freebsd.org.</p>

bug fixes and general enhancements have been made to the system. Please
see relevant details below.
Any installation failures or crashes should be reported by using the
send-pr command (those preferring a WEB based interface can also see
http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html).
For information about FreeBSD and the layout of the 3.5-RELEASE
directory (especially if you're installing from floppies!), see
ABOUT.TXT. For installation instructions, see the INSTALL.TXT and
HARDWARE.TXT files.

---------------------------------
1.1. KERNEL CHANGES
-------------------
The loader was substantially updated from -current
Various bugs in the CAM driver fixed.
oltr [Olicom NIC] driver updated.
bktr(4) [Brooktree frame-grabber] driver updated.
isp(4) [Compaq Qlogic] driver updated.

A number of bugs in syscons(4) fixed.
A number of bugs in vinum(4) fixed.
Better support for LBA in wd(4) driver.
Audio mixer(8) support substantially updated.
Support for Microsoft Sound Source (MSS) audio devices.
Support for more Linux system calls in the Linux compatability code.
netgraph(4) updated: new node types and documentation added.
Various bugs in msdosfs code fixed.
1.2. SECURITY CHANGES
---------------------
Many small but meaningful changes, too many to list. See CVS repository
for more details. Suffice it to say from a user perspective that
"various things were tightened up."
1.3. USERLAND CHANGES
---------------------
vinum(8) substantially updated.
chmod(1) has gained a -v flag. See man page for details.
df(1) gains new unit types. See man page for details.
Various bugs in date(1), ed(1), ln(1), sh(1), camcontrol(8), vinum(8)
and quite a number of other user commands fixed (see CVS for details :).
groff(1), grep(1) texinfo(1) utilities updated.
Quite a few enhancements to /etc from -current merged.
Many doc bugs fixed in man pages.
Thread locking functions added to dynamic linker (see dllockinit(3)).
pthread_cancel(3) function added.
ppp(8) has undergone some changes and bug fixes. One change in particular
may disturb existing configurations. The # character is now treated
as a comment start, irrespective of whether it's the first non-blank
character on the line. Some ISPs allocate authnames with embedded #
characters. These must now be escaped or quoted.
picobsd support (/usr/src/release/picobsd) substantially updated.
HTTP installation option added to system installer (sysinstall(8)).
XFree86 updated from 3.3.5 to 3.3.6 (XFree86 4.0 not quite ready for
prime-time yet).
2. Supported Configurations
---------------------------
FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA and PCI bus
based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
386sx is not recommended). Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
also provided.

the same driver.
FreeBSD currently does NOT support IBM's microchannel (MCA) bus.
3. Obtaining FreeBSD
--------------------
You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
3.1. FTP/Mail
-------------
You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
`ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
MIRROR.SITES. Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
networking terms) to you. Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
Contact freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org for more details if you'd like to
become an official mirror site.
If you do not have access to the Internet and electronic mail is your
only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
`ftpmail@ftpmail.vix.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
LAST resort!
3.2. CDROM
----------
FreeBSD 3.5-RELEASE CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
Walnut Creek CDROM

4. Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
----------------------------------------------
If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, most likely
it's 2.2.x or 2.1.x (in some lesser number of cases) and some of the
following issues may affect you, depending of course on your chosen
method of upgrading. There are two popular ways of upgrading
FreeBSD distributions:
o Using sources, via /usr/src
o Using sysinstall's (binary) upgrade option.
In the case of using sources, there are simply two targets you need to
be aware of: The standard ``upgrade'' target, which will upgrade a 2.x
or 3.0 system to 3.5 and the ``world'' target, which will take an
already upgraded system and keep it in sync with whatever changes have
happened since the initial upgrade.
In the case of using the binary upgrade option, the system will go
straight to 3.5/ELF but also populate the /&lt;basepath&gt;/lib/aout
directories for backwards compatibility with older binaries.
In either case, going to ELF will mean that you'll have somewhat
smaller binaries and access to a lot more compiler goodies which have
been already been ported to other ELF environments (our older and
somewhat crufty a.out format being largely unsupported by most other
software projects). Those who wish to retain access to the older
a.out dynamic executables should be sure and install the compat22
distribution. Notice that the a.out libraries won't be accessible
until the system is rebooted, which may cause trouble with certain
a.out packages.
Also, do not use install disks or sysinstall from previous versions,
as version 3.1 introduced a new bootstrapping procedure, requiring
new boot blocks to be installed (because of elf kernels), and version
3.2 has further modifications to the bootstrapping procedure.
[ other important upgrading notes should go here]
5. Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
(preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command or use the CGI
script at http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html. Bug reports
will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
as possible. Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
watch out for.
If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Note that send-pr itself is a shell script that should be easy to move
even onto a totally different system. We much prefer if you could use
this interface, since it make it easier to keep track of the problem
reports. However, before submitting, please try to make sure whether
the problem might have already been fixed since.
Otherwise, for any questions or tech support issues, please send mail to:
freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves! To
contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
mail to:
freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org
Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
freebsd-announce@FreeBSD.org
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing
to do so. Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
`help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message. This
will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
and ask about them!

<b>From:</b> "Jordan K. Hubbard" &lt;jkh@zippy.cdrom.com&gt;<br>
<b>To:</b> announce@FreeBSD.org<br>
<b>Subject:</b> 4.0-RELEASE is now available</p>
<p>Well, it's a bit late and hopefully all the better for it, but here
it is. It gives me great pleasure to announce the release of FreeBSD
4.0-RELEASE. This is our first release along the 4.x-stable (RELENG_4)
branch and contains a number of significant advancements over FreeBSD
3.4. Please see the release notes for further information as the list
of new features is too long to list here.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE is available from ftp.FreeBSD.org and various FTP
mirror sites throughout the world. It can also be ordered on CD from
<a href="http://www.freebsdmall.com/">The FreeBSD Mall</a>, from where
it will be shipping soon on a 4 CD set. There will also be two such
sets available for 4.0, one containing installation bits for the x86
architecture (as well a lot of other material of general interest to
programmers and end-users alike) and another for DEC Alpha architecture
machines.</p>
<p>As usual, disc #1 from Walnut Creek CDROM's official distribution (for
both architectures) will also be available via anonymous FTP as soon
as it's been compiled in its final form. Please monitor the master FTP
site for details. We also can't promise that all the mirror sites will
carry this rather large (660MB) installation image, but it will at least
be available (once ready) from:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.0-install.iso">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.0-install.iso</a><br>
<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.0-install.iso">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.0-install.iso</a></p>
<p>These files allow one to install the base system and all of its most
important add-ons from a single bootable image, one which can be written
as a raw ISO 9660 image by most CD creator software.</p>
<p>Even though we make our installation CDs freely available, we also
hope that you'll continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing
one of its official CD releases from the FreeBSD mall. A portion of
each sale goes to support FreeBSD's development and general infrastructure
and is thus highly appreciated.</p>
<p>The official FTP distribution site for FreeBSD is:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD</a></p>

If you read no other documentation before installing this
version of FreeBSD, you should at least by all means *READ
THE ERRATA* for this release so that you don't stumble over
problems which have already been found and fixed. This ERRATA.TXT
file is obviously already out of date by definition, but other
copies are kept updated on the net and should be consulted as
the "current errata" for your release. These other copies of
the errata are located at:
1. <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/">http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/</a>
2. ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/&lt;your-release&gt;/ERRATA.TXT
(and any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location).
Any changes to this file are also automatically emailed to:
<a href="mailto:freebsd-current@FreeBSD.org">freebsd-current@FreeBSD.org</a>
For all FreeBSD security advisories, see:
<a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/">http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/</a>
for the latest security incident information.
---- Security Advisories:
Current active security advisories: None
---- System Update Information:
<strong>
The tcpdump binary in the bin distribution is erroneously linked against
the libcrypto.so library, which is only found in the separate crypto
distribution.
</strong>
Therefore, if you only install the bin distribution without the crypto
distribution, tcpdump will not work as installed.
Fix: Download a new tcpdump binary from the following location:
<a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/~kris/4.0R/i386/tcpdump">http://people.FreeBSD.org/~kris/4.0R/i386/tcpdump</a> (i386)
<a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/~kris/4.0R/alpha/tcpdump">http://people.FreeBSD.org/~kris/4.0R/alpha/tcpdump</a> (alpha)
The MD5 checksum of this file is:
i386 version: MD5 (tcpdump) = 0b3d32b367e7312d546ccae8f1824391
alpha version: MD5 (tcpdump) = 2d113fa4c38c8a0299d558acb5c6ad57
To verify the checksum of your downloaded copy, perform the following
command:
/sbin/md5 /path/to/downloaded/tcpdump
and compare with the above.
<strong>
o Tool source code not installed by install.sh (outside of sysinstall)
</strong>
If you are attempting to extract the full source code from
the CDROM (outside of the sysinstall program), you will end up missing
the tool source code.
Fix: If you are running install.sh from /cdrom/src, you will need to also
run:
cat stool.?? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C /usr/src
to have the tool sources (/usr/src/tools hierarchy) installed. These are
required to successfully build world.

1. What's new since the 3.1/4.0 branch
--------------------------------------
All changes described here are unique to the 4.0 branch unless
specifically marked as [MERGED] features.
1.1. KERNEL CHANGES
-------------------
NFS has been immensely improved with bug fixes and performance tuning.
Support for more than 32 signals has been added.
POSIX 1003.1 conformant SA_SIGINFO signal handlers are now supported.
SIGFPE signal handlers (both SA_SIGINFO and traditional BSD handlers)
now get meaningful error codes describing the kind of error. See
sigaction(2).
IA32 hardware debug registers are now supported. See ptrace(2) and
procfs(5).
Jail(8) aware sysctl(8) variables have been added for Linux mode.
A large number of bug fixes and performance improvements have been
made to the VM system, including and most especially to mmap() and
related functions. The MAP_NOSYNC option has been added to better support
the use of shared files as an IPC mechanism. The VM system's swapper has
been completely rewritten and performance has been greatly enhanced,
especially when swapping over NFS.
An emulator for SVR4 binaries has been added.
Support has been added for direct access to NTFS filesystems.
Support for the NWFS filesystem and NetWare client connections has
been added. A variety of NetWare related tools, such as ipxping
and ncprint, have been added in ports/net/ncplib.
A new ATA/ATAPI driver has been implemented. The aim of this new
subsystem is to maximise performance on modern ATA/ATAPI based
systems. The "ata" driver supports all major chipsets including
those used on PCI card based controllers like the Promise and the
Abit/SIIG. There is support for busmaster DMA transfers upto and
including the new ATA/66 mode. The 'ata' driver automatically
setup the hardware for the maximum possible transfer mode to
maximise system throughput. Supported devices are all ATA compliant
disks and ATAPI CDROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, LS120, ZIP
and tape drives. The ata driver also support PCCARD ATA devices.
The 'ata' driver also sports error handling and timeout code, to
avoid the problems of "hung" ATA/ATAPI devices.
A new utility 'burncd' has been written to facilitate easy control
of ATAPI CD-R and CD-RW drives, and allows burning of CD-R/RW
media in a wide selction of formats, including multisession mode.
Driver support has been added for PCI gigabit ethernet adapters
based on the Alteon Networks Tigon 1 and Tigon 2 chipsets, including
the Alteon AceNIC, 3Com 3c985 and Netgear GA620. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for IEEE 802.11 PCMCIA wireless network
adapters based on the Lucent Hermes chipset, including the Lucent
WaveLAN/IEEE 802.11, the Cabletron RoamAbout and Melco Aireconnect.
Both 2Mbps and 6Mbps Turbo adapters are supported. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for PCI fast ethernet cards based
on the ADMtek Inc. AL981 Comet chipset. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for PCI fast ethernet cards based
on the ADMtek Inc. AL985 Centaur chipset. [MERGED]
Support has been added for the Rise mP6 processor. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for SysKonnect SK-984x PCI gigabit
ethernet adapters. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for Adaptec Duralink PCI ethernet adapters
based on the Adaptec AIC-6915 fast ethernet controller. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for PCI fast ethernet adapters based on
the Sundance Technologies ST201 controller, including the D-Link DFE-550TX.
[MERGED]
Driver support has been added for the 3Com 3c905C-TX. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for SMC SMC9xxx-based Ethernet adapters.
Several IPFW improvements including stateful inspection, user- and
group-based firewalling, dynamic logging with arbitrary logging
limits, probabilistic rule match. [MERGED]
IPv6 IPFW has been imported from the KAME project.
The "dummynet" traffic shaper now handles efficiently thousands
of independent queues. [MERGED]
Several fixes to bridging, which now supports clusters of interfaces
with bridging being done independently within each cluster. [MERGED]
The top-level syslog(3) category "security" has been added, and IPFW now
uses syslog(3) to log all messages to /var/log/security.
Driver support has been added for PCI fast ethernet adapters based on
the Silicon Integrated Systems SiS 900 and SiS 7016 ethernet controllers.
[MERGED]
Driver support has been added for PCI fast ethernet adapters based on
the Davicom DM9100 and DM9102 ethernet controllers, including the Jaton
Corporation XpressNet.
Support has been added for blocking incoming ICMP redirects, outgoing RST
frames and incoming SYN|FIN frames in order to lessen or nullify the
impact of certain kinds of DoS attacks. [MERGED]
Support has been added for forwarding IP datagrams without inspecting or
decreasing the TTL in order to make gateways and firewalls less visible
and therefore less exposed to attacks. [MERGED]
The old `sd' (SCSI Disk) backwards compatibility support has been removed.
Any usage of "/dev/sd*" in ``/etc/fstab'' must be replaced by "/dev/da*".
In addition, any useage of "/dev/*sd*" in scripts need to be changed.
Even if you have old `sd' device entries in /dev, they will no longer work.
The `al' `ax' `dm' `pn' and `mx' drivers have been removed and replaced
with a single driver (`dc') in order to reduce code duplication. The
new driver handles all chipsets supported by the older drivers, and it
offers improved support for 10/100 cards based on the DEC/Intel 21143.
Driver support has been added for the 3Com 3c450-TX HomeConnect
PCI ethernet NIC. [MERGED]
Driver support has been added for USB ethernet adapters based on
the ADMtek AN986 Pegasus chip, including the LinkSys USB100TX,
the Billionton USB100, the Melco Inc. LU-ATX, the D-Link 650TX
and the SMC-2202USB.
Driver support has been added for USB ethernet adapters based on
the Kawasaki LSI KL5KUSB101B chip, including the LinkSys USB10T,
the Peracom USB Ethernet Adapter, the 3Com 3c19250, the Entrega
NET-USB-E45, the ADS Technologies USB-10BT, the ATen UC10T, the
Netgear EA101, the D-Link DSB-650, and the SMC 2102USB and 2104USB.
IPfilter version 3.3.8 has been integrated.
Driver support has been added for USB ethernet adapters based on
the CATC USB-EL1210A chip, including the CATC Netmate and Netmate II,
and the Belkin F5U111.
Driver support has been added for Aironet 4500/4800 802.11 wireless
adapters. This includes PCMCIA, PCI and ISA models.
IPv6 support has been imported from the KAME project. This includes the
kernel IPv6 protocol stack (sys/netinet6), TCP IPv6 support, configurable
IPv6 and IPv4 tunneling over IPv6 or IPv4, and IPv6 TCP to IPv4 TCP
translation gateway support. Protocol-independent name resolution
functions have been added to libc (getaddrinfo, getnameinfo, etc).
Floating point exceptions for new processes (devide-by-zero,
under/overflow, invalid range etc.) are now disabled by default. Use
fpsetmask(3) to reenable those you need. Note that integer
device-by-zero is not covered by the FPU and will still trap after
this change. Also note that conversion of float/double to integer
where the float variable is too big now doesn't trap as well (it can't
be separated from other operations we want masked).
1.2. SECURITY FIXES
-------------------
Numerous security enhancements and fixes have been applied during the
course of development of FreeBSD 4.0. Most of these have also been
backported to the 3.X-STABLE series.
A new jail(2) system call and admin command (jail(8)) have been added for
additional flexibility in creating secure process execution environments.
OpenSSL v0.9.4 (a general-purpose cryptography and SSL2/3/TLSv1 toolkit)
has been integrated with the base system. In the future this will be used
to provide strong cryptography for FreeBSD utilities out-of-the-box.
OpenSSH 1.2 has been integrated with the base system. OpenSSH is a free
(BSD-licensed), full-featured implementation of the SSH v1 protocol, which
is completely interoperable with other SSH v1 clients and servers, such as
the /usr/ports/security/ssh port. OpenSSH provides all of the features of
this port - in fact it is based on an older release before the software
became restrictively licensed. FreeBSD 4.0 provides SSH client/server
functionality out-of-the-box if you choose to install the 'DES'
cryptography distribution in sysinstall.
Telnet has a new encrypted authentication mechanism called SRA. SRA
uses a Diffie-Hellmen exchange to establish a session key, then uses
that to DES encrypt the username and password. As a side effect the
session key is used to DES encrypt the session. SRA is vulnerable to
man-in-the-middle attacks, the DH parameters are on the small side,
and DES is showing its age, but the benefits are that it requires
absolutely no administrative changes to the machine to work, and is
at the very least a step up from plaintext. To use it, you need to
either use "telnet -ax" or set up a .telnetrc to enable it by default.
IPsec support has been imported from the KAME project. This includes IPsec
tunnel mode to implement a Virtual Private Network via a security gateway,
and IPsec transport mode to achieve secure socket-level communication.
Also, kernel-internal crypto code has been imported to sys/crypto, and
IPsec support has been added to the following userland applications:
sbin/ping, usr.sbin/inetd, usr.sbin/rrenumd, usr.sbin/traceroute6,
usr.sbin/rtadvd, usr.sbin/setkey
1.3. USERLAND CHANGES
---------------------
The base C/C++ compiler has been upgraded from GCC 2.7.2 to GCC 2.95.2.
This gives users full ISO C++ support, and preliminary C9x support.
Various changes has been made to /bin/sh to improve POSIX 1003.2
conformance, especially for scripting.
The f77 emulation via f2c has been replaced by a native F77 compiler.
The timezone database has been updated to catch all of the recent changes
in Europe, the former Soviet Union, and Central and South America.
The timezone data files now contain a magic number allowing for easy
identification.
Groff/troff/eqn has been updated to version 1.15.
Gdb has been updated to version 4.18.
Numerous fixes have been applied to improve the security of FreeBSD code
as part of the FreeBSD Auditing Project.
FreeBSD's threads library, libc_r, has had many features and performance
improvements added, which makes it almost completely POSIX-compliant. In
addition, Linux's kernel-supported LinuxThreads library is now available as
a port (ports/devel/linuxthreads), which can be used for native FreeBSD
programs.
The following dedicated IPv6 applications have been added:
sbin/ping6, sbin/rtsol, usr.sbin/gifconfig, usr.sbin/ifmcstat,
usr.sbin/pim6dd, usr.sbin/pim6sd, usr.sbin/prefix, usr.sbin/rip6query,
usr.sbin/route6d, usr.sbin/rrenumd, usr.sbin/rtadvd, usr.sbin/rtsold,
usr.sbin/traceroute6
The following applications have been updated to support IPv6:
usr.bin/netstat, usr.bin/fstat, usr.bin/sockstat, usr.sbin/tcpdchk,
usr.sbin/tcpdump, usr.sbin/trpt, libexec/ftpd, libexec/rlogind,

installation media.
2. Supported Configurations
---------------------------
FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA, MCA and PCI
bus based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
386sx is not recommended). Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
also provided.
What follows is a list of all peripherals currently known to work with
FreeBSD. Other configurations may also work, we have simply not as yet
received confirmation of this.

3. Obtaining FreeBSD
--------------------
You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
3.1. FTP/Mail
-------------
You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
`ftp.FreeBSD.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
MIRROR.SITES. Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
networking terms) to you. Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
Contact freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org for more details if you'd like to
become an official mirror site.
If you do not have access to the Internet and electronic mail is your
only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
`ftpmail@ftpmail.vix.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
LAST resort!
3.2. CDROM
----------
FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE and 3.X-RELEASE CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
Walnut Creek CDROM
4041 Pike Lane, Suite F
Concord CA 94520
1-800-786-9907, +1-925-674-0783, +1-925-674-0821 (FAX)
Or via the Internet from orders@cdrom.com or http://www.cdrom.com.
Their current catalog can be obtained via ftp from:
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/cdrom/catalog
Cost per -RELEASE CD is $39.95 or $24.95 with a FreeBSD subscription.
FreeBSD SNAPshot CDs, when available, are $39.95 or $14.95 with a
FreeBSD-SNAP subscription (-RELEASE and -SNAP subscriptions are entirely
separate). With a subscription, you will automatically receive updates as
they are released. Your credit card will be billed when each disk is
shipped and you may cancel your subscription at any time without further
obligation.
Shipping (per order not per disc) is $5 in the US, Canada or Mexico
and $9.00 overseas. They accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American
Express or checks in U.S. Dollars and ship COD within the United
States. California residents please add 8.25% sales tax.
Should you be dissatisfied for any reason, the CD comes with an
unconditional return policy.
4. Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
----------------------------------------------
If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, most likely
it's 3.0 and some of the following issues may affect you, depending
of course on your chosen method of upgrading. There are two popular
ways of upgrading FreeBSD distributions:
o Using sources, via /usr/src
o Using sysinstall's (binary) upgrade option.
Please read the UPGRADE.TXT file for more information.
5. Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
(preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command or use the CGI
script at http://www.FreeBSD.org/send-pr.html. Bug reports
will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
as possible. Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
watch out for.
If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Note that send-pr itself is a shell script that should be easy to move
even onto a totally different system. We much prefer if you could use
this interface, since it make it easier to keep track of the problem
reports. However, before submitting, please try to make sure whether
the problem might have already been fixed since.
Otherwise, for any questions or tech support issues, please send mail to:
freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves! To
contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
mail to:
freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org
Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
freebsd-announce@FreeBSD.org
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing
to do so. Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
`help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message. This
will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
and ask about them!

<p><b>Date:</b> Wed, 27 Sep 2000 00:07:50 -070<br>
<b>From:</b> "Jordan K. Hubbard" &lt;jkh@zippy.osd.bsdi.com&gt;<br>
<b>To:</b> announce@FreeBSD.org<br>
<b>Subject:</b> 4.1.1-RELEASE now available from ftp.freebsd.org</p>
<p>As always, I'm pleased to announce the availability of
FreeBSD 4.1.1-RELEASE, a point release update for 4.1-RELEASE
and, of course, the very latest in 4.x-STABLE branch technology.</p>
<p>Since 4.1-RELEASE was produced in August 2000, RSA released their
code into the public domain and a number of other security
enhancements were made possible through the FreeBSD project's
permission to export cryptographic code from the United States.
These changes are fully reflected in 4.1.1-RELEASE, making it
one of the most secure "out of the box" releases of FreeBSD
we've ever done.</p>
<p>We also took the opportunity to include support for new features
like IDE ATA100 support, drivers for additional Gigabit ethernet
cards and hardware watchpoints in gdb. Please see the release notes
for more information.</p>
<p>The 4.1.1-RELEASE is available right now for the
<a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1.1-RELEASE">i386</a>
architecture
(alpha to follow in several days) in "FTP installable" and ISO image
form. For the appropriate bits, please see:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1.1-RELEASE/">
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1.1-RELEASE/</a><br>
<a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.1.1-install.iso">
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.1.1-install.iso
</a></p>
<p>When the Alpha release follows in several days, it will be available from:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.1.1-RELEASE/">
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.1.1-RELEASE/</a><br>

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.1.1-install.iso
</a></p>
<p>Please watch the <a href="mailto:alpha@FreeBSD.org">alpha@freebsd.org</a> mailing list for an announcement.</p>
<p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE:</b> This is a network only point release and will not be
made generally available for sale on CDROM, at least not from BSDi or
anyone else we currently have knowledge of. The next official CD release
will be FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE, still scheduled for mid-November 2000.</p>
<p>FreeBSD is also available via anonymous FTP from mirror sites in the
following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada,
the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong
Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Korea, Latvia,
Malaysia, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Russia,
Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Elbonia, the
Ukraine and the United Kingdom (and quite possibly several others
which I've never even heard of :).</p>
<p>Before trying the central FTP site, please check your regional
mirror(s) first by going to:</p>

1. What's new since 4.1-RELEASE
--------------------------------------
1.1. KERNEL CHANGES
-------------------
The tap driver, a virtual Ethernet device driver for bridged
configurations, has been added.
accept_filters, a kernel feature to reduce overheads when accepting
and reading new connections on listening sockets, has been added.
POSIX.1b Shared Memory Objects are now supported. The implementation
uses regular files, but automatically enables the MAP_NOSYNC flag
when they are mmap(2)ed.
The ata(4) driver now has support for ATA100 controllers.
The ti(4) driver now supports the Alteon AceNIC 1000baseT Gigabit
Ethernet and Netgear GA620T 1000baseT Gigabit Ethernet cards.
The ng_bridge(4) node type has been added to the netgraph subsystem.
Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements have also been made.
1.2. SECURITY FIXES
-------------------
1.3. USERLAND CHANGES
---------------------
GDB now supports hardware watchpoints.
sendmail upgraded from version 8.9.3 to version 8.11.0. Important changes
include: new default file locations (see
/usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README); newaliases is limited to root and
trusted users; and the MSA port (587) is turned on by default. See
/usr/src/contrib/sendmail/RELEASE_NOTES for more information.
routed(8) has been updated to version 2.22.
The truncate(1) utility, which truncates or extends the length
of files, has been added.
syslogd(8) can take a -n option to disable DNS queries for every
request.
kenv(1), a command to dump the kernel environment, has been added.
The behavior of periodic(8) is now controlled by /etc/defaults/periodic.conf
and /etc/periodic.conf.
logger(1) can now send messages directly to a remote syslog.
OpenSSL has been upgraded to 0.9.5a, which includes numerous bugfixes
and enhancements.
finger(1) now has the ability to support fingering aliases, via the
finger.conf(5) file.
RSA Security has waived all patent rights to the RSA algorithm (two
weeks before the patent was due to expire). As a result, the native
OpenSSL implementation of the RSA algorithm is now activated by
default, and the rsaref port and librsaUSA are no longer
required for USA residents.
sshd now enabled by default on new installs.
The xl(4) driver now supports the 3Com 3C556 and 3C556B MiniPCI
adapters used on some laptops.
killall(1) is now a C program, rather than a Perl script. As a
result, killall's -m option now uses the regular expression syntax of
regex(3), rather than that of perl(1).
boot98cfg(8), a PC-98 boot manager installation and configuration
utility, has been added.
Binutils have been upgraded to 2.10.0.
libreadline has been upgraded to 4.1.
The ifconfig(8) command can set the link-layer address of an interface.
bktr(4) driver update to 2.1.5. New tuner types have been added,
and improvememts to the KLD module and to memory allocation have been
made.
2. Supported Configurations
---------------------------
FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA, MCA and PCI
bus based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
386sx is not recommended). Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
also provided.

3. Obtaining FreeBSD
--------------------
You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
3.1. FTP/Mail
-------------
You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
`ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
MIRROR.SITES. Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
networking terms) to you. Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
Contact freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org for more details if you'd like to
become an official mirror site.
If you do not have access to the Internet and electronic mail is your
only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
`ftpmail@ftpmail.vix.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
LAST resort!
4. Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
----------------------------------------------
If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, most likely
it's 3.0 and there may be some issues affecting you, depending
of course on your chosen method of upgrading. There are two popular
ways of upgrading FreeBSD distributions:
o Using sources, via /usr/src
o Using sysinstall's (binary) upgrade option.
Please read the UPGRADE.TXT file for more information, preferably
before beginning an upgrade.
5. Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
(preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command or use the CGI
script at http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html. Bug reports
will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
as possible. Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
watch out for.
If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Note that send-pr itself is a shell script that should be easy to move
even onto a totally different system. We much prefer if you could use
this interface, since it make it easier to keep track of the problem
reports. However, before submitting, please try to make sure whether
the problem might have already been fixed since.
Otherwise, for any questions or tech support issues, please send mail to:
freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
If you're tracking the -stable development efforts, you should
definitely join the -stable mailing list, in order to keep abreast
of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you
use and maintain the system:
freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.org
Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired

<b>From:</b> "Jordan K. Hubbard" &lt;jkh@zippy.osd.bsdi.com&gt;<br>
<b>To:</b> announce@FreeBSD.org<br>
<b>Subject:</b> 4.1-RELEASE now available from ftp.freebsd.org</p>
<p>I'm very pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE,
the very latest in 4.x-STABLE branch technology. Following the
release of FreeBSD 4.0 in March, 2000, many bugs were fixed, important
security issues dealt with, and quite a few new features added.
Please see the release notes for more information.</p>
<p>The 4.1-RELEASE is available for
<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1-RELEASE">i386</a>
and
<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.1-RELEASE">alpha</a>
right now and can be installed directly over the net using the boot floppies
or copied to a local NFS/ftp server. ISO images will also be provided
later (see below).</p>
ISO (CD) Images<br>
---------------<br>
<p>ISO images of the installation CD will be made available by August 1st
2000, after the bits have undergone a bit more integration testing.
This additional delay is necessary given that the ISO images are so
large (~650MB each) and are not something which many people want to
transfer more than once. A follow-up announcement will be sent once
the ISO images are in place, so please don't send me email asking
where they are or when they'll be ready. When they're ready, they'll
be uploaded and an announcement will be sent out.</p>
<p>We also can't promise that all the mirror sites will carry these large
ISO images, but they will at least be available from:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.1-install.iso">
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.1-install.iso</a><br>

ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.1-install.iso</a></p>
<p>If you can't afford the CDs, are impatient, or just want to use it for
evangelism purposes, then by all means download the ISOs, otherwise please
do continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing one of its
official CD releases from BSDi. FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE can be ordered as a
4 CD set from <a href="http://www.freebsdmall.com">The FreeBSD Mall</a>
from where it will soon be shipping. Each CD sets contains the FreeBSD
installation and application package bits for either the x86 or the
alpha architecture (each architecture has its own CD set). For a set of
distfiles used to build ports in the ports collection, please see also the
FreeBSD Toolkit, a 6 CD set containing all such extra bits which we can no
longer fit on the 4 CD sets. You can also order by phone, postal mail,
FAX or email at:</p>

If you read no other documentation before installing this
version of FreeBSD, you should at least by all means *READ
THE ERRATA* for this release so that you don't stumble over
problems which have already been found and fixed. This ERRATA.TXT
file is obviously already out of date by definition, but other
copies are kept updated on the net and should be consulted as
the "current errata" for your release. These other copies of
the errata are located at:
1. <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/">http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/</a>
2. ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/&lt;your-release&gt;/ERRATA.TXT
(and any sites which keep up-to-date mirrors of this location).
Any changes to this file are also automatically emailed to:
<a href="mailto:freebsd-current@FreeBSD.org">freebsd-current@FreeBSD.org</a>
For all FreeBSD security advisories, see:
<a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/">http://www.FreeBSD.org/security/</a>
for the latest security incident information.
---- Security Advisories:
Current active security advisories: None
---- System Update Information:
The FreeBSD Boot Manager (boot0) has a bug that causes it to hang the machine
during boot with no screen output.
Fix: Boot your machine into FreeBSD either via a boot floppy or a CD-ROM, then
download a new boot0 binary from the following location:
<a href="http://people.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/4.1R/i386/boot0">http://people.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/4.1R/i386/boot0</a>
Once you have downloaded the new binary, install it with the boot0cfg command
onto your hard disk. For example, if you have boot0 on disk ad0, you would
run the following command:
/usr/sbin/boot0cfg -B -b /path/to/downloaded/boot0 ad0
You may also use cvsup to update your source tree and build the new boot0
binary from source. You will need version 1.14.2.3 of
src/sys/boot/i386/boot0/boot0.s or newer.
The MD5 checksum of this file is:
MD5 (boot0) = 8770a386dba44f0aa06b15db72c1f624
To verify the checksum of your downloaded copy, perform the following
command:
/sbin/md5 /path/to/downloaded/boot0
and compare with the above.

1. What's new since 4.0-RELEASE
--------------------------------------
1.1. KERNEL CHANGES
-------------------
FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE contains updated code from the KAME project
(http://www.kame.net) including the following features:
* Significantly improved IPSEC functionality. In particular, IPSEC
security associations must no longer be manually keyed: the new code
supports racoon, the KAME IKE daemon, which is located in
/usr/ports/security/racoon. Racoon has been shown to interoperate
well with other vendor IKE systems, meaning that FreeBSD 4.1 can be
used in a heterogeneous IPSEC environment. However, racoon *is*
still a work in progress, meaning that there may still be bugs,
configuration syntax changes, etc.
* About 9 months of fixes and improvements to the IPv6 code relative to
what was in 4.0-RELEASE.
* FreeBSD 4.1 can now be installed on an IPv6-only network - this will be
the first release of FreeBSD that never needs to operate using IPv4 at
all! ftp7.jp.freebsd.org (Listed as Japan #7 in sysinstall) is an
IPv6-reachable mirror site for installation and package-fetching.
* The ALTQ traffic-shaping system has not yet been merged - it will
hopefully be added before the release of 4.2. The more experimental
KAME code has also not been merged. If you need those features,
consider using the 4.1-RELEASE+KAME snapshots from
ftp://ftp.kame.net which will become available after 4.1-RELEASE.
* KNOWN ISSUES: NFS mounts over IPSEC do not seem to work reliably in
all cases - mount hangs and possible data corruption have been
observed.
A new event notification facility called kqueue was added to the
FreeBSD kernel. This is a new interface which is able to replace
poll/select, offering improved performance, as well as the ability
to report many different types of events. Support for monitoring
changes in sockets, pipes, fifos, and files are present, as well as
for signals and processes.
Support for Intel's Wired for Management 2.0 (PXE) was added to
the FreeBSD boot loader. Due to API differences, the older PXE
versions are not supported. This allow network booting using DHCP.
For the alpha release of FreeBSD, the following specifics also
apply:
FreeBSD/alpha now posseses a loader with FICL (Forth support) builtin.
Parallel ports are now supported.
Support for multiple new Alpha system types has been added. Please
check HARDWARE.TXT for details.
AlphaServer 4100 (Rawhide) does not want to allow installation using
floppies or cdrom. Workaround is to install using another Alpha machine and
move the disk to the AS4100. Once installed FreeBSD runs fine.
AlphaServer 2100A (Lynx) is not supported in this release. Note that
AlphaServer 2100 (Sable) works fine.
Machines that have onboard IDE interfaces that their SRM can boot from
are now supported with the IDE disk being the root/boot device. See
HARDWARE.TXT for machine specifics like speed, use of DMA etc.
Note that TGA consoles (either builtin or on TGA expansion cards) will
not work. You will need to use a serial console or install a VGA card.
1.2. SECURITY FIXES
-------------------
The kernel and userland have been audited for bugs and security
vulnerabilities resulting from the incorrect use of format strings in
vfprintf()-like functions. No vulnerabilities were discovered.
For additional security fixes, see the list of released Security
Advisories located at http://www.freebsd.org/security/
1.3. USERLAND CHANGES
---------------------
Support for the KAME IKE daemon, racoon, as noted in section 1.1 above.
Several additional system utilities (whois, fetch, and possibly
others) have gained the ability to operate over IPv6.
cdcontrol(1) now supports a "cdid" command, which calculates and
displays the CD serial number, using the same algorithm used by the CDDB
database.
mtree(8) now includes support for a file listing pathnames to be excluded
when creating and verifying prototypes. This makes it easier to use
mtree as a part of an intrusion-detection system.
The OPIE one-time-password suite has been updated to 2.32.
OpenSSH has been upgraded to 2.1.0, which provides support for the
SSH2 protocol, including DSA keys. Therefore, OpenSSH users in the US
no longer need to rely on the restrictively-licensed RSAREF toolkit
which is required to handle RSA keys. OpenSSH 2.1 interoperates well
with other SSH2 clients and servers, including the ssh2 port. See
http://www.openssh.com for more details.
OpenSSH can now authenticate using OPIE passwords in SSH1 mode.
Support is not yet available in SSH2 mode.
camcontrol(8) now includes a built in 'format' function to low-level
format SCSI disks.
Support for USB devices was added to the GENERIC kernel and to the
installation programs to support USB devices out of the box. Note that
an AT keyboard must still be used during the initial install, but it
should work fine afterwards.
The entire i386 bootstrap was revamped to support automatic detection and
use of the Enhanced Disk Drive BIOS extensions to support booting beyond
the 1023rd cylinder. As part of this change, the FreeBSD boot manager
(boot0) was increased from 1 sector in size (512 bytes), to 2 sectors in
length (1024 bytes). As a result, several userland changes were made to
cope with MBR boot loaders of varying sizes.
libfetch has been greatly improved. fetch(1) and the pkg tools now use
libfetch instead of libftpio, which means that the pkg tools have gained
HTTP support, and both have gained IPv6 support.
The csh(1) shell has been replaced by tcsh(1), although it can still
be run as csh(1).
The more(1) command has been replaced by less(1), although it can still
be run as more(1).
ls(1) can produce colorized listings with the -G flag (and appropriate
terminal support).
2. Supported Configurations
---------------------------
FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA, MCA and PCI
bus based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
386sx is not recommended). Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
also provided.

3. Obtaining FreeBSD
--------------------
You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
3.1. FTP/Mail
-------------
You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
`ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
MIRROR.SITES. Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
networking terms) to you. Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
Contact freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org for more details if you'd like to
become an official mirror site.
3.2. CDROM
----------
FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE and 3.x-RELEASE CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
BSDi
4041 Pike Lane, Suite F
Concord CA 94520
1-800-786-9907, +1-925-674-0783, +1-925-674-0821 (FAX)
Or via the Internet from orders@wccdrom.com or http://www.freebsdmall.com.
Cost per -RELEASE CD is $39.95 or $24.95 with a FreeBSD subscription.
FreeBSD SNAPshot CDs, when available, are $39.95 or $14.95 with a
FreeBSD-SNAP subscription (-RELEASE and -SNAP subscriptions are entirely
separate). With a subscription, you will automatically receive updates as
they are released. Your credit card will be billed when each disk is
shipped and you may cancel your subscription at any time without further
obligation.
Shipping (per order not per disc) is $5 in the US, Canada or Mexico
and $9.00 overseas. They accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American
Express or checks in U.S. Dollars and ship COD within the United
States. California residents please add 8.25% sales tax.
Should you be dissatisfied for any reason, the CD comes with an
unconditional return policy.
4. Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
----------------------------------------------
If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, most likely
it's 3.0 and there may be some issues affecting you, depending
of course on your chosen method of upgrading. There are two popular
ways of upgrading FreeBSD distributions:
o Using sources, via /usr/src
o Using sysinstall's (binary) upgrade option.
Please read the UPGRADE.TXT file for more information, preferably
before beginning an upgrade.
5. Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
(preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command or use the CGI
script at http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html. Bug reports
will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
as possible. Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
watch out for.
If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Note that send-pr itself is a shell script that should be easy to move
even onto a totally different system. We much prefer if you could use
this interface, since it make it easier to keep track of the problem
reports. However, before submitting, please try to make sure whether
the problem might have already been fixed since.
Otherwise, for any questions or tech support issues, please send mail to:
freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
If you're tracking the -stable development efforts, you should
definitely join the -stable mailing list, in order to keep abreast
of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you
use and maintain the system:
freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.org
Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves! To
contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
mail to:
freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org
Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
freebsd-announce@FreeBSD.org
All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing
to do so. Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
`help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message. This
will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
archives, etc. There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
and ask about them!
6. Acknowledgements
-------------------
FreeBSD represents the cumulative work of many dozens, if not
hundreds, of individuals from around the world who have worked very
hard to bring you this release. For a complete list of FreeBSD
project staffers, please see:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/staff.html
or, if you've loaded the doc distribution:
file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/staff.html
Special mention to:
The donors listed at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/donors.html
and to the many thousands of FreeBSD users and testers all over the
world, without whom this release simply would not have been possible.
We sincerely hope you enjoy this release of FreeBSD!

<b>To:</b> announce@FreeBSD.org<br>
<b>Subject:</b> 4.2-RELEASE is now available</p>
<p>It is my almost excessive pleasure to announce the availability of
FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE, the very latest in 4.x-STABLE branch technology.
Following the release of FreeBSD 4.1.1 in September, 2000, many bugs
were fixed, important security issues dealt with, and a conservative
number of new features added. Please see the release notes for more
information.</p>
<p>4.2-RELEASE is now available for the
<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.2-RELEASE">i386</a>
and
<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/4.2-RELEASE">alpha</a>
architectures right now and can be installed directly over the net using
the boot floppies or copied to a local NFS/ftp server.</p>
ISO (CD) Images<br>
---------------<br>
<p>We can't promise that all the mirror sites will carry the larger
ISO images, but they will at least be available from:</p>
<p><a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.2-install.iso">
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.2-install.iso</a><br> and

ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.2-install.iso</a></p>
<p>If you can't afford the CDs, are impatient, or just want to use it for
evangelism purposes, then by all means download the ISOs, otherwise please
do continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing one of its
official CD releases from BSDi. FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE can be ordered as a
4 CD set from <a href="http://www.freebsdmall.com">The FreeBSD Mall</a>
from where it will soon be shipping. Each CD sets contains the FreeBSD
installation and application package bits for either the x86 or the
alpha architecture (each architecture has its own CD set). For a set of
distfiles used to build ports in the ports collection, please see also the
FreeBSD Toolkit, a 6 CD set containing all such extra bits which we can no
longer fit on the 4 CD sets. You can also order by phone, postal mail,
FAX or email at:</p>

---- Security Advisories:
The vulnerability documented in security advisory FreeBSD-SA-01:39 was
fixed in FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE. The release notes mentioned the fix,
but made no mention of the security advisory.
A vulnerability in the fts(3) routines (used by applications for
recursively traversing a filesystem) could allow a program to operate
on files outside the intended directory hierarchy. This bug, as well
as a fix, is described in security advisory FreeBSD-SA-01:40.
A flaw allowed some signal handlers to remain in effect in a child
process after being exec-ed from its parent. This allowed an attacker
to execute arbitrary code in the context of a setuid binary. More
details, as well as a fix, are described in security advisory
FreeBSD-SA-01:42.
A remote buffer overflow in tcpdump(1) could be triggered by sending
certain packets at a target machine. More details, as well as a fix,
can be found in security advisory FreeBSD-SA-01:48.
A remote buffer overflow in telnetd(8) could result in arbitrary code
running on a target machine. More details, as well as a fix, can be
found in security advisory FreeBSD-SA-01:49.
---- System Update Information:
The release note entry for the ESS Maestro-3/Allegro sound driver gave
an incorrect command for loading the driver via /boot/loader.conf.
The correct command is:
snd_maestro3_load="YES"
ssh(1) is no longer SUID root. The primary manifestation of this
change is that .shosts authentication may not work "out of the box".
Both temporary and permanent fixes are described in the FAQ at:
