This release fixes lots of bugs (including an ugly bug in 0.46
|
||||||
|
syslogd that could fork-bomb your system). Added several new
|
||||||
|
apps: rdate, wget, getopt, dos2unix, unix2dos, reset, unrpm,
|
||||||
|
renice, xargs, and expr. syslogd now supports network logging.
|
||||||
|
There are the usual tar updates. Most apps now use getopt for
|
||||||
|
more correct option parsing.
