+Updating Information for MidnightBSD users.
-+
+20131205:
-+
+        OpenSSH 6.4p1
-+
-+
+20131203:
-+
+        Perl 5.18.1 imported.
-+
-+
+        Update less to v458
-+
-+
+20131130:
-+
+        Remove named from base. We still include the client utilities for
-+
+        now until replacements can be found.
-+
-+
+20131004:
-+
+        rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD)
-+
-+
+20130917:
-+
+        Support for 65,536 routing tables was added.  A new fib specific
-+
+        field has been added to mbuf.  This is an increase from 16.
-+
-+
+20130910:
-+
+        Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001)
-+
-+
+        nullfs(5)
-+
-+
+        The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not
-+
+        check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same
-+
+        nullfs instance.  It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a
-+
+        location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the
-+
+        underlying (source) filesystem is the same.
-+
-+
+        ifioctl
-+
-+
+        As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request
-+
+        handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is
-+
+        passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or
-+
+        return an error code.
-+
-+
+        Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR,
-+
+        SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been
-+
+        handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input
-+
+        validation or verify the caller's credentials.  Typical link-layer
-+
+        actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up"
-+
+        and resetting the underlying hardware.
-+
-+
+20130824:
-+
+        Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it
-+
+        handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers.
-+
+        FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix
-+
+        will be included in the next release.
-+
-+
+        Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static
-+
+        binary.  It has limited functionality, but can be used to
-+
+        checkout/commit code.  It is named svnlite.
-+
-+
+20130822:
-+
+        Fix two security vulnerabilities.
-+
-+
+        Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST).
-+
+        This could be exploited to read memory by a user process.
-+
-+
+        When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks,
-+
+        a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized.
-+
-+
+        Import xz 5.0.4
-+
-+
+        Import sqlite 3.7.17
-+
-+
+        Import BIND 9.8.5-P2
-+
-+

-+
+        mksh R48 imported.
-+
-+
+        Sendmail 8.14.7 imported.
-+
-+
+20130717:
-+
+        libmport bug was fixed causing hash verification to fail.
-+
-+
+        virtio(4) imported from FreeBSD 9-stable. SCSI support not
-+
+        included.
-+
-+
+20130612:
-+
+        RELENG_0_4 created for 0.4. Development continues on 0.5.
-+
-+
+20130402:
-+
+        Update BIND and OpenSSL to resolve security advisories.
-+
-+
+20130305:
-+
+        MKSH R44 imported.
-+
-+
+20130213:
-+
+        MKSH R42b imported
-+
-+
+20130211:
-+
+        MKSH R42 imported
-+
-+
+20130125:
-+
+        MKSH R41 imported
-+
-+
+20130122:
-+
+        OpenSSH 5.8p2 imported
-+
-+
+        SQLite 3.7.15.2 imported
-+
-+
+        Fixed a longstanding bug in libmport extrating new index files.
-+
-+
+20120710:
-+
+        BSD licensed sort imported from FreeBSD-CURRENT
-+
-+
+        For now, GNU sort is installed as gnusort, but it will
-+
+        go away in time.
-+
-+
+20120708:
-+
+        tcsh 6.18.01 imported.
-+
-+
+        NetBSD's iconv imported.
-+
-+
+        libc gains strnlen(3), memrchr(3), stpncpy(3).
-+
-+
+20120612:
-+
+        BIND security update related to CVE-2012-1667.
-+
-+
+        Zero length resource records can cause BIND to crash resulting
-+
+        in a DOS attack or information disclosure.
-+
-+
+20120407:
-+
+        mksh R40f (fixes regression)
-+
-+
+20120328:
-+
+        mksh R40e
-+
-+
+        Perl 5.14.2
-+
-+
+20120229:
-+
+        cpucontrol(8) and cpuctl(4) added from FreeBSD 7-stable.
-+
-+
+20120209:
-+
+        mDNSResponder 333.10 imported
-+
-+
+20111227:
-+
+        import raid5 module for GEOM, graid5(8)
-+
-+
+        This is experimental and known to use a lot of kernel
-+
+        memory.
-+
-+
+20111223:
-+
+        telnetd: fix a root exploit from a fixed buffer that was not checked
-+
-+
+        pam: don't allow escape from policy path.  Exploitable in KDE, etc.
-+
-+
+        Fix pam_ssh module:
-+
-+
+        If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access
-+
+        to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys.
-+
-+
+        This has to due with the way that openssl works.  It ignores unencrpted data.
-+
-+
+        Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd.
-+
-+
+        nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some
-+
+        operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security
-+
+        hole in things like ftpd.
-+
-+
+20111217:
-+
+        libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not
-+
+        backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog
-+
-+
+20111212:
-+
+        mksh r40d imported
-+
-+
+20111210:
-+
+        re(4) and rl(4) updated to support new chips.
-+
-+
+        GEOM synced with FreeBSD 7-stable.
-+
-+
+        MidnightBSD GPT partition types created in sys/gpt.h and
-+
+        setup in boot loader and GEOM.
-+
-+
+        amdsbwd(4) (amd watchdog for south bridge) updated to support
-+
+xx series chipset.
-+
-+
+20111207:
-+
+        import bsd grep from FreeBSD/OpenBSD.
-+
-+
+        MK_BSD_GREP controls which grep is installed
-+
+        as grep with the other as bsdgrep or gnugrep.
-+
-+
+20111122:
-+
+        mksh vR40c imported.
-+
-+
+20111117:
-+
+        BIND 9.6 ESV R5 P1
-+
-+
+20111107:
-+
+        tzdata 2011n
-+
-+
+20111026:
-+
+        mDNSResponder v320
-+
-+
+        BIND 9.6 ESV R5
-+
-+
+20111022:
-+
+        cflow 0.0.6 imported
-+
-+
+20111020:
-+
+        less v436 imported
-+
-+
+        amdsbwd(4) AMD southbridge watchdog
-+
-+
+20111019:
-+
+        awk 20110810 imported
-+
-+
+        et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but
-+
+        not included in GENERIC kernel.  The kernel module needs
-+
+        testing before we can include it in GENERIC.
-+
-+
+        intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one
-+
+        specific CPU core.
-+
-+
+20111017:
-+
+        Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011)
-+
-+
+        Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data.
-+
-+
+20111015:
-+
+        Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used
-+
+        to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given
-+
+        process. Several new system calls were added to support this
-+
+        functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary
-+
+        compatibility on amd64.
-+
-+
+        The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and
-+
+        amd64.  Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE)
-+
+        for this feature.
-+
-+
+        This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches.
-+
-+
+20111004:
-+
+        Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent
-+
+        patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network
-+
+        apps to work under the linuxolator again.
-+
-+
+20111001:
-+
+        Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is
-+
+        now default and an environment variable must be set to use
-+
+        active.
-+
-+
+20110930:
-+
+        Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including
-+
+        USB cameras.  Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices.
-+
-+
+        Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4).
-+
+        Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed
-+
+        when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum
-+
+        offloading.
-+
-+
+        Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when
-+
+        working with large raid3 sets.
-+
-+
+        Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller.
-+
-+
+20110929:
-+
+        Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3.
-+
-+
+        The following modules are no longer available, and should be
-+
+        removed from loader.conf:
-+
+        ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample
-+
-+
+        alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often
-+
+        required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that
-+
+        a connection could be established.  Disable hibernation.
-+
-+
+20110928:
-+
+        Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z
-+
+        files that are corrupted.
-+
-+
+        Fix path validation with unix domain sockets.
-+
-+
+20110917:
-+
+        Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as
-+
+        it's in the base system.
-+
-+
+20110914:
-+
+        Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3
-+
-+
+20110813:
-+
+        synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64.
-+
-+
+20110806:
-+
+        sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported
-+
-+
+        msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added.  msearch(1) provides
-+
+        a full text search command line tool.  libmsearch can also be used
-+
+        to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable
-+
+        index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the
-+
+        /usr/libexec/msearch.index tool.  Full text indexes take considerable
-+
+        space in /var.  I'm using approximately 500MB currently.
-+
-+
+        Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package
-+
+        versions.  This will be obsolete with mport though.
-+
-+
+20110710:
-+
+        kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to
-+
+        know why it's in use and thus script can be run.
-+
-+
+        Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed
-+
+20110709:
+        cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change
+        with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4).
