72     <h2>Introduction</h2>
73    
74 laffer1 38 <p style="text-indent: 3em; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 20px;">MidnightBSD is a desktop operating system for x86 compatible (including Pentium&reg; and Athlon&#8482;), and soon amd64 compatible (including Opteron&#8482;, Athlon&#8482;64, and EM64T) architectures. It was originally based on <a href="http://www.freebsd.org/">FreeBSD</a> 6.1 Beta. The goal of the project is to create a BSD with ease of use and simplicity in mind.</p>

135 laffer1 57 <p>August 1, 2007<br />
136     BIND and Tcpdump were patched in 0.2 and 0.1 for recent security issues. BIND is now equivalent to 9.3.4p1.

140 laffer1 10 CURRENT and STABLE both have the patch for ipv6 type 0 routing headers. The problem is that ipv6 routing headers could be run over the same link multiple times.
141 laffer1 5 </p>
142     <p>March 10, 2007<br />
143     While many of the DST changes were imported last year, we decided to cover all cases and import
144     the latest tzdata2007c. Users concerned about DST changes should update their sources
145     and rebuild. The java ports may not have DST changes in place. We will review that issue.
146     </p>
147     <p>Jaunary 23, 2007<br />
148 laffer1 57 A &quot;symlink&quot; exploit was found in the MidnightBSD jail system. A fix was made available. Please
149 laffer1 5 update your /etc/rc.d/jail file from cvs. Patches will not be created until our first release.
