Hello everyone,

the next and hopefully last RSBAC pre version v1.2.3-pre6 / RC1 has been 
released! It supports kernels 2.4.26 and 2.6.6.

There are no more functional changes planned for the release, only 
bugfixes. PLEASE try this version out and report all bugs or 
inconveniences you find to the RSBAC list. If no bugs get reported, this 
version will become the final release!

The full list of changes in the 1.2.3-pre series is on the RSBAC to-do list 
page at http://zhware.ath.cx/cgi-bin/oswiki.cgi/RsbacTodo
You will also find the new to-do list for version 1.2.4 there.

Changes against 1.2.3-pre5:

    *  Add JAIL regression suite to admin tools
    * Add backup of RES settings to attr_back_user: First Backup default 
user, then all user's settings, which are different from that.
    * Fix ACL menu to show special rights in mask
    * Fix ACL menu target type selection to avoid INVALIDTARGET
    * Fix ptrace interceptions for non-i386 archs
    * Fix ACL defaults on powerpc, check, whether fix breaks defaults on 
i386. Reason was enum stuffed into __u8 list descriptor, fails with 
different endianess
    * Check for DEV list descriptor compatibility between 2.4 and 2.6, 
kdev_t might give trouble. Not compatible, changed descriptor to own 
struct type.
    * Fix sysfs and ACL data structures related lockups when 
accessing /sys/block.
    * Add RC types and compatibility settings for USER targets (to allow 
READ_ATTRIBUTE and MODIFY_ATTRIBUTE)
    * Allow to set a different RC boot role than that of user root
    * Add RC process type for kernel threads 

Amon.
