[ANNOUNCE] conntrackd-0.9.1 released

[ANNOUNCE] conntrackd-0.9.1 released

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Overview:

Conntrackd is the userspace daemon for the Connection Tracking System.
This daemon maintains a copy of the Connection Tracking System in
userspace. It is entirely written in C and is highly configurable and
easily extensible. Currently it covers the specific aspects of Stateful
Linux firewalls to enable High Availability (HA) solutions and can be
used as statistics collector of the firewall use.

Status:

This project is under development, people feeling brave are encouraged
to test a send nice reports ;)

More information available at:

Enjoy,

So far: It seems to work :)

I felt brave enough to create a debian like init.d script and a whole
debian directory for the source tree to simplify building of conntrackd
packages.

Also I wrote a little script to be used as heartbeat resource.d plugin
which is included in the tar-ball as exmaple.

As a debian dir is included in the libnetfilter_conntrack and libnfnetlink
tar-balls it thought this could be helpfull. :)

You can download the tarball of the debian/ dir at
 http://files.rfc2324.org/conntrackd/

Pablo, would you include this in further versions?

Btw at
 deb http://debian.rfc2324.org/debian sarge conntrackd
 deb-src http://debian.rfc2324.org/debian sarge conntrackd
you can download precompiled packages for sarge.

Ciao
Max

Interesting also for heartbeat users, although I prefer keepalived that
IMHO has a tighter integration with linux (through netlink sockets)
although I must confess that I don't know the current development status
of heartbeart.

I think so, I'm going to put this in the source tree as soon as I get
time to review it ;)
