** New operation mode: proxy ** Command line option precedence Command line options take precedence over configuration file statements. ** elif statement A familiar `elif' statement is supported, e.g.: if condition-1 action-list-1 elif condition-2 action-list-2 elif condition-3 action-list-3 else action-list-4 fi ** New CONTROL statement esmtp-auth-delayed. When set to `yes', this statement instructs Anubis to postpone ESMTP authentication until MAIL command is issued by the client. This allows to change authentication credentials in the SMTP section (see below). ** SMTP section The new section "SMTP" is invoked each time an SMTP command is received. This section may alter the command's argument, using the "modify command", e.g.: BEGIN SMTP regex :extended modify command [ehlo] "foo.bar.net" if command ["mail from:"] "<(.*)>(.*)" modify command ["mail from:"] "<root@bar.net>\2" fi END It is also allowed to use esmtp-* keywords in this section, provided that `esmtp-auth-delayed yes' is set in the CONTROL section. Changes in the ESMTP authentication credentials take effect if they occur either before receiving MAIL command from the client, or when handling this command, e.g.: BEGIN SMTP if command ["mail from:"] "<smith(\+.*)?@@example.net>" esmtp-auth-id smith esmtp-password guessme else esmtp-auth no fi END ** New keywords: log-facility and log-tag ** Guile output By default Scheme's standard error and output ports are redirected to syslog, using priorities `err' and `warning' correspondingly. ** MySQL options file When using MySQL for Anubis user database, the database parameters and access credentials are read from the file /etc/my.cnf, section "anubis". Additionally, two URL parameters are provided: "options-file", which sets the name of the options file, and "options-group", which sets the name of the group.
Description:
GNU Anubis is an SMTP message submission daemon. It represents an intermediate layer between mail user agent (MUA) and mail transport agent (MTA), receiving messages from the MUA, applying to them a set of predefined changes and finally inserting modified messages into an MTA routing network. The set of changes applied to a message is configurable on a system-wide and per-user basis.

Description:
Beam is a suite of backup programs written in a reasonably portable shell language with the purpose of making backup process as easy as possible. The name is an acronym for "Backup Easy And Manageable".
* New command line option --init (-i) * New format flags: down=N, child=S, sibling=S * New guile primitives: - (grecs-node-ident-locus node [full]) Returns the location of the node's identifier. See below for the meaning of [full]. - (grecs-node-value-locus node [full]) Returns the location of the node's value. * Full vs. simplified locations. There are two flavors of source locations: simplified and full ones. A simplified location consists of a file name and line number. When returned from a Guile primitive, they are packed in a cons. A simplified location shows an approximate location of the object in the configuration file. A full location provides the exact location of the object. It consists of a pair of triplets, which mark the beginning and end of the object. Each triplet consists of a file name, line number and column number. When returned from a Guile primitive, each triplet is represented as a list of three elements and both triplets are packed in a cons, the start location being its car, and the end location being its cdr. The three functions that return node locations, grecs-node-locus, grecs-node-ident-locus and grecs-node-value-locus, return simplified locations by default. If #t is supplied as the optional second argument, these functions return full locations.

Description:
GNU Dico provides a flexible modular implementation of dictionary server, a number of modules for it, and a console based dictionary lookup utility. A Web interface is also available.
* The path statement can refer to a regular file. Prior versions of direvent required the argument to the "path" statement to refer to an existing directory. This requirement is now lifted. The pathname can refer to any type of file (not only a directory). Moreover, the file is not required to exist. If it does not exist, direvent will set up an auxiliary watcher (called a "sentinel"), that will wake up upon creation of the file with that pathname and will set up the configured watcher once it is created. The process is reversed when the file referred to by the "path" statement is deleted. In that case, the configured watcher is deactivated and a sentinel is set up which will bring it back when the destination file or directory is created. This mode of operation ensures that the configured watcher will always be operational. * Fix watcher removal on BSD-like systems. * Configuration changes ** multiple environ statements Multiple environ statements can be used within a single watcher block. Such statements accumulate.
Description:
GNU Direvent monitors a set of directories on the file system and reacts when their content changes. When a change is detected, the program invokes an external command configured for that kind of change.
Description:
A set of tools for DNS management.
* Exponential backoff with jitter If AWS responds with a RequestLimitExceeded code, eclat retries the request using exponential backoff with jitter algorithm. The algorithm is controlled by two values: max-retry-interval and total-retry-timeout. When the RequestLimitExceeded error is returned, eclat will sleep for 2 seconds and then retry the request. For each subsequent RequestLimitExceeded error, it will calculate the timeout using the following formula: t = rand(0, min(M, 2 ** N)) + 1 where N is the attempt number, M is the value of max-retry-interval parameter, 'rand(a,b)' selects the integer random number X such that 0 <= X <= b, and '**' denotes the power operator. The attempts to resend the request will continue until either a response other than RequestLimitExceeded is received (be it a response to the query or another error response), or the total time spent in the retry loop becomes equal to or greater than total-retry-timeout, whichever occurs first. * VPC Support The following new commands provide full support for manipulating the EC2 VPC objects: lsvpc describe-vpcs lsvpcattr describe-vpc-attribute mkvpc create-vpc setvpcattr modify-vpc-attribute rmvpc delete-vpc * Route table support The following new commands provide full support for manipulating the EC2 Route Table objects: assocrtab AssociateRouteTable mkrtab CreateRouteTable rmrtab DeleteRouteTable lsrtab DescribeRouteTables disasrtab DisassociateRouteTable * Route support The route subcommand allows you to add, delete and modify routes in route tables. ** Create route: eclat route rtb-12345678 add CIDR gw ID ** Delete route: eclat route rtb-12345678 del CIDR ** ReplaceRoute eclat route rtb-12345678 repl CIDR gw ID * Subnet support The following new commands provide full support for manipulating the EC2 Subnet objects: mksubnet create-subnet rmsubnet delete-subnet lssubnet describe-subnets setsubnetattr modify-subnet-attribute * Internet Gateway support The following new commands provide full support for manipulating the EC2 Internet Gateway objects: lsigw describe-internet-gateways mkigw create-internet-gateway rmigw delete-internet-gateway atigw attach-internet-gateway deigw detach-internet-gateway

Description:
A simple console locker program for GNU/Linux systems.
* The --callout-socket option New option --callout-socket=URL instructs mailfromd to use URL to pass callout requests to the callout server listening on URL. It is equivalent to the callout-url configuration statement, which it overrides. This option is used by mtasim to avoid clobbering the existing callout sockets when starting new mailfromd instance. * NS lookup NFL functions This release implements the following new MFL functions: number primitive_hasns (string DOM) Returns 1 if the domain DOM has at least one NS record and 0 otherwise. Throws an error if DNS lookup fails. require 'dns' number hasns (string DOM) Same as above, but returns 0 on DNS lookup failures. string getns (string DOM ; number RESOLVE, number SORT) Returns a whitespace-separated list of all the NS records for the domain DOM. If optional parameter RESOLVE is 1, the returned list contains IP addresses. Optional SORT controls whether the entries are sorted. * Bugfixes ** Callout functions return true on checking the null return address (<>) ** Arguments in transaction between mailfromd and calloutd are quoted ** Avoid false failures in testsuite due to libadns warnings ** configure --with-dbm=T accepts any T supported by mailutils ** The 'dbdel' built-in silently ignores non-existing keys
Description:
Mailfromd is a general-purpose mail filtering daemon for Sendmail, Postfix and MeTA1. It is able to filter both incoming and outgoing messages using criteria of arbitrary complexity, supplied by the administrator in the form of a script file. The daemon interfaces with the MTA using Milter or PMilter protocols.
* Support for the new mailbox format - dotmail Dotmail is a replacement for traditional mbox format, proposed by Kurt Hackenberg. A dotmail mailbox is a single disk file, where messages are stored sequentially. Each message ends with a single dot (similar to the format used in the SMTP DATA command). Any dot appearing at the start of the line is doubled, to prevent it from being interpreted as end of message marker. * Improve automatic mailbox format detection This release introduces a notion of accuracy level for the purpose of mailbox format detection. Selecting the accuracy level allows the user to achieve the desired balance between the speed of the folder scan and accuracy of mailbox format detection. The accuracy level can be set either from the configuration file, using the mailbox.accuracy-level statement, or from the environment, via the MU_AUTODETECT_ACCURACY variable. The default accuracy level 1 discerns valid mbox and dotmail mailboxes providing reasonable scan speed. Level 0 (previous default) does not discern them, but provides maximal speed. Level 2 and higher provide better accuracy at the price of speed. * Bugfixes ** mh - correctly parse +/abs/path folder specification ** tls - fix handle interruptions in read routine ** URL parser: use case-insensitive comparison for auth and host parts ** maidag: fix coredump in daemon mode ** movemail: make sure UIDLs are properly stored. ** mail: force mime mode if at least one attachment was given (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=918806)

* Add missing symbol pam_innetgr lacked pam_sm_setcred
Description:
PAM-modules is a collection of useful PAM modules plus a command line utility for checking PAM authentication and other management groups.
* New option --no-init
The --no-init option instructs pies not to switch to init mode if its
PID is 1. Use this option if you run pies as a process manager in a
docker container.
* New component modes: startup and shutdown
Startup components are run right after pies startup. Any other
components start running only after last startup component has terminated.
Shutdown components are executed at program shutdown, after
all other components have been terminated.
Any number of startup or shutdwon components can be defined in the
configuration file. Such multiple components are run simultaneously,
unless required otherwise by their "prerequisites" and "dependents"
statements.
* New component flag: shell
The 'shell' flag instructs pies to run the component via "/bin/sh -c
$command". Use it if the command should undergo variable expansion,
contains redirections, pipes, etc. E.g.
component X {
flags shell;
command "if [ -n \"$X\" ]; then foo; else bar; fi"
}
* Improved cyclic dependency diagnostics
* New 'env' statement
The 'env' statement has been re-implemented as a compound statement.
It can contain the following sub-statements:
** clear
Clears the environment
** keep NAME
Keeps the variable NAME when clearing the environment. Implies
"clear". NAME can be a globbing pattern, in which case all
variables matching the pattern are retained.
** set "NAME=VALUE"
Sets the environment variable for the component. VALUE is subject
to variable expansion.
** eval "VALUE"
Perform variable expansion on VALUE and discard the result (similar
to the shell ":" command). Useful for side effects, e.g.:
eval ${HOME:=/home/t}
** unset NAME
Unsets the variable. NAME can be a globbing pattern, in which case all
variables matching the pattern are unset.
Example:
env {
clear;
keep PATH;
keep MANPATH;
keep "LC_*";
set "MANPATH=$MANPATH${MANPATH:+:}/usr/local/man";
}
* Legacy 'env' statement.
Support for the old one-line syntax of "env" is retained for
backward compatibility.
Previous versions applied unnecessary word splitting if given a
single argument. This is now fixed, so that e.g. the following
statement is processed correctly and defines a single variable
X to have the value "foo bar":
env "X=foo bar"
* New environment variable available for commands started from return-code
Programs started via "exec" statement in the "return-code" block
obtain the PID of the master pies process in environment variable
PIES_MASTER_PID.
* Improved testsuite
Description:
GNU Pies (pronounced "p-yes") is a Program Invocation and Execution Supervisor. This utility allows to execute usual foreground-mode applications in detached mode, as if they were daemons. It combines in itself the fucntionality of init and inetd programs. It can be used to control complex multi-component software, such as jabberd2 or MeTA1.
* Configuration file raddb/config
The syslog statement takes an optional 4th argument specifying syslog
tag to use, e.g.:
channel default {
syslog local1.info radiusd;
};
* New attributes
** GNU-Server-Address
Holds IP address of the RADIUS server that recieved the
request. Notice, that the value of this attribute is "0.0.0.0" if
there are no `listen' statement in your `raddb/config'.
** GNU-Server-Port
Holds UDP port number of the RADIUS server that recieved the request.
* Automake function AM_GNU_RADIUS is provided, for checking if
GNU Radius is installed from configure.ac scripts.
* Guile support requires Gule version 1.8 or later.
* Bugfixes
** Pass NAS-IP-Address to mlc_stop_query

http://rush.software.gnu.org.uaDescription:
GNU Rush is a Restricted User Shell. It is intended for use with ssh, rsh and similar remote access programs. Using a sophisticated configuration file, Rush gives you complete control over the command lines that users execute, usage of system resources, such as virtual memory, CPU time, etc. In particular, it allows to run remote programs in a chrooted environment.
* Support SNMPv3
* Default SNMP version is 2c
* Use newer Grecs
* Drop unneeded dependencies
* Variable assignments in expressions
* Detection of SNMP counter overflows
* Comma operator
* Support for indexed MIBs
This feature allows you to use symbolic names instead of the fixed MIBs
for MIBs that are part of SNMP subtrees. For example, to get number of
packets sent over eth0 into variable "out", you would do the following:
table iftable IF-MIB::ifDescr;
variable out "IF-MIB::ifOutUcastPkts.$iftable[eth1]";
The first statement converts the subtree into a "table" named "iftable".
The second statement references an entry in this table that has
the value "eth1". For example, if the SNMP tree has the following MIB
IF-MIB::ifDescr.10: eth0
then the expression "$iftable[eth]" yields "10"
* Assertion syntax changed.
The assertion statement takes a single argument, which must be a
string consisting of the following three parts:
<oid: string> [!]<opcode>[/i] <value: string>
The <opcode> part can be either an arithmetical operator (=, <, <=, >,
>=), or any of the following string operators:
eq string equality
ne string inequality
prefix oid value must begin with <value>
suffix oid value must end with <value>
glob <value> is a glob(7) pattern that oid value must match
Each of these can be suffixed with "/i" to request case-insensitive comparison.
A "!" in front of opcode reverts its meaning.
The <value> part must not include the type prefix.
Description:
SLB is a Simple Load Balancer. The utility monitors a set of remote servers, obtaining a set of numeric values via SNMP. These values are used to compute a single floating-point number, called a relative load for that server. The servers are then sorted in order of increasing loads and the resulting table is output (using a configurable format string) to a file or pipe.
Description:
Slogin is a replacement for /bin/login, intended to be used in system start-up script wherever the root maintenance is needed. It does not update utmp/wtmp and hence is safe to be called when the partition containig these files is not mounted.

* Automatic VCS detection. * Don't descend into internal VCS directories during the scan.
Description:
Vcsync synchronizes files on the file system with the corresponding repository after each commit. It is normally configured as a hook, using the mechanism provided by the version control system of choice (loginfo in CVS, post-commit in SVN, or post-receive in GIT).
* Minor change
Description:
This Varnish Cache module implements basic HTTP authentication against password files created with the Apache htpasswd utility.
* Support for Varnish 6.0.2
Description:
This module provides API for writing binary log files from Varnish VCL scripts and the utilities for listing and searching in such files.
* req.http.X-VMOD-DBRW-Error This header is set to 1 by dbrw.rewrite to indicate that an error occurred during the rewrite. * New flags: regex and eq One of this flags can appear in the fourth column of the returned data set. The 'eq' flag instructs dbrw.rewrite to use exact string match, instead of regular expressions. The 'regex' flag instructs it to use regular expression matching. It is the default. * Improve error handling in mysql submodule Previously, error codes ER_PARSE_ERROR and ER_EMPTY_QUERY were treated as permanent conditions, causing mysql connection to be closed and disabled. This is no longer the case, as they both can well mean a transient condition (e.g. ER_PARSE_ERROR returned for the 'Illegal mix of collations' error).
Description:
A Varnish Cache module implementing database-driven rewrite rules. Intended for use with web sites that need an exceedingly big number of redirect and/or rewrite rules, Vmod-dbrw allows the administrator to keep all rules in an SQL database of arbitrary structure, thereby considerably speeding up their handling. Another advantage of this approach is that rewrite rules stored in a database are easier to maintain.

Description:
Command line tool for managing AWS Glacier
Implements restart mode.
The restart mode is a special feature of sentinel mode, controlled by
the new options --restart-on-exit and --restart-on-signal. In this
mode genrc will restart the subsidiary program if it exits with a
predefined status code or terminates on a predefined signal. Use this
feature to ensure the service provided by the program controlled by
genrc won't get terminated because of hitting a bug or encountering an
unforeseen external condition.
For example:
genrc --command=COMMAND \
--sentinel \
--restart-on-exit='!0' --restart-on-signal='!TERM,QUIT' start
This will ensure that the COMMAND will be restarted immediately after
it terminates, unless it exits with the status 0 or terminates on
SIGTERM or SIGQUIT.
Description:
Generic helper program for writing system initialization scripts. Depending on the operation mode, it starts, stops, reconfigures or displays the status of a specific program. Primary audience is Slackware system administrators. However, the tool is generic enough to be used on any other Linux (and not only) distribution. In the contrast to another similar programs like start-stop-daemon, it is designed so that the entire rc file can consist of only one line, invoking (or exec'ing) genrc with the right set of arguments.
- Fix acmeman --setup
Description:
A tool for automatic creation and renewal of ACME (LetsEncrypt) SSL certificates. The list of domains to handle can be obtained from acmeman or apache configuration files, or from both.

Description:
Monitors state of running docker containers via SNMP. The package provides two utilities:Each container is supposed to run the tallyman command as part of its HEALTHCHECK configuration. This tool takes as its argument the command line that does the actual checking, collects its return and sends it over to the stevedore daemon that acts as a collector and simultaneously as a SNMP subagent, delivering the collected information to the snmpd daemon.
- tallyman
- health state collector to be run inside the container
- stevedore
- container state collector and SNMP agent daemon
