not to crap on you're parade, but what does tinhat have to do with gentoo hardened? yes i know you based it off it. but on your own site it say "Tin Hat is a Linux distribution derived from hardened Gentoo" don't think it's cool to get spam about this in a gentoo mailing list.<br> <br>sorry just my thoughts on this deal.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jan 20, 2009 at 12:35 PM, basile <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:basile@opensource.dyc.edu">basile@opensource.dyc.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br> Hash: SHA1<br> <br> <br> Hello everyone,<br> <br> I'd like to announce to the list that there is a new release of Tin Hat<br> out. Tin Hat is a fully featured Linux desktop based on Hardened Gentoo<br> which runs purely in RAM. It aims to be very secure, stable, and fast.<br> <br> This release doesn't include any new features, but rather focuses on<br> stabilizing the extensive changes implemented in the last release which<br> completely reworked the build scripts: now a new Tin Hat release is built<br> from a running system rather than from VMWare templates. The entire<br> process<br> of syncing upstream using portage, recompiling the kernel if necessary,<br> preparing a prestine system and building the ISOs is done purely in RAM.<br> <br> The release also addresses several security issues and bugfixes. Over 30<br> packages are upgraded, including the following important updates:<br> hardened-sources-2.6.25-r12, bind-tools-9.4.3_p1, openssl-0.9.8j,<br> e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1, and portage-2.1.6.4<br> <br> Home page: <a href="http://opensource.dyc.edu/tinhat" target="_blank">http://opensource.dyc.edu/tinhat</a><br> Downloads: <a href="http://opensource.dyc.edu/tinhat-downloads" target="_blank">http://opensource.dyc.edu/tinhat-downloads</a><br> <br> Anthony Basile, Ph.D.<br> Chair of Information Technology<br> D'Youville College<br> Buffalo, NY 14201<br> USA<br> <br> <br> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----<br> Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux)<br> Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - <a href="http://enigmail.mozdev.org" target="_blank">http://enigmail.mozdev.org</a><br> <br> iEYEARECAAYFAkl2C0gACgkQl5yvQNBFVTVSJACfUsF3fZ7uUTUdRYk/QIxdjdXJ<br> kAYAn2pTdly+UYrSkkWPOMQdQcct9mFx<br> =d9sz<br> -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----<br> <br> <br> </blockquote></div><br>
