Changes: This release fixed a problem with the Update download button not working due to an incomplete HTML::Parser update. Three patches were added to fix security issues in Perl.
- 22 Jul 2008 21:56
Changes: The update is split into two part to accommodate the free space limitation. The main change is a kernel upgrade with more hardware supported. The second important change is a dnsmasq upgrade in response to the DNS vulnerability CVE-2008-1447. As usual, this version can be installed as an update from previous 1.4.x versions, or with ready-to-go ISO or USB bootable images or PXE for a fresh install.

Changes: The Linux 2.4 kernel and iptables are now used. All ECI ADSL supported modems and the Alcatel Speedtouch 330 modem are now supported. The port forwarding interface was improved with support for port ranges and PPTP (GRE). Danish, Dutch, Greek, Norwegian, Spanish, and Swedish languages are now available and can be selected from the Web interface. Improvements were made to log reporting, the open connections display, dial-on-demand traffic selection, and traffic graphing (which now uses MRTG).

Changes: DNRD was replaced with DNSMASQ. Updated software includes Speedtouch, Snort, SSH, and a PPTP client. New modules include ip_masq_ipsec and ip_masq_h323. Multiple languages were added (German, French, Turkish), as was configuration backup/restore, support for the Pulsar PCI ADSL card, static DHCP leases, aliasing on the red interface, dial-on-demand ADSL, and proxy graphs.

IPcop is now using iptables with the 2.4 kernel
iptables, finally arrived
With version 1.3.0, ipcop finally has changed to kernel 2.4 and iptables.
Version 1.3.0 installer even works with the 1.2.x backup floppy! I had the new version up and running in 10 minutes flat, on a second machine.
Congratulations, guys. You know definitely know what you are doing.
ipcop 1.2
Well done team, I just installed ipcop 1.2 on my old 333mhz celeron box from a http install, restored from floppy from pre5 and as usual it all went without a hitch. Congratulations on the new release.
Easy, great support
Incredibly easy to set up - had three sites firewalled and VPN'ed with minimal effort. Developers and user community are very helpful, regardless of your technical background or skill level.

Not to mention the fact that an update was posted here for it today, going from version 0.1.1 to version 1.2, and it's listed under Minor feature enhancements!!! That's quite a jump for some minor enhancements, I'd hate to guess as to what the version will be when some major enhancements get added! Not to mention that there is no mention on the IPCop website of v1.2 at all, only 0.1.1
