This release brings plenty of minor enhancements and couple of new features, the highlights of which are:

New features:

  • An RSS reader is now available via toolbox command interface for reading news briefing.
  • Disk usage on root file system is collected for the information web page and system maintenance report.

New features in system maintenance daemon:

  • The summary report is printed to standard output if there are no Email recipients.
  • The initial delay is shortened from 10 minutes to 2 minutes.
  • Non-essential utilities are periodically copied to temporary directory to avoid being cleaned up by operating system routine.
  • System tuning and turning off swap are optionally carried out during system maintenance, they are no longer CLI parameters of the main program (-tunesystem and -swapoff).

Notable enhancements:

  • The component name output among log entries is decorated with a brief component configuration description, for example, entries generated by web server now mention the web server's listen address and port.
  • Timed out shell commands are reliably terminated via process group.
  • A program-wide 200MB temporary buffer stores outstanding outgoing mail. Once the buffer fills up, new mails will not be queued or delivered. This measure prevents a potential denial-of-service attack.
