Copyright 1999-2000 VA Linux Systems, Inc. http://wald.intevation.org Wald Project News Highlights http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=162 (deutschsprachige Version siehe unten) Due to a faulty patch in the Debian OpenSSL package all SSH keys generated on Debian Etch systems are weak and must be considered compromised. See http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571 and http://wiki.debian.org/SSLkeys for further information. As many of the user uploaded keys on wald.intevation.org are affected we decided to delete _all_ user ssh keys from the server. Please check your ssh keys with the tools provided by Debian and generate a new key-pair (after updating your System!) if necessary. In case you know that your original key-pair was generated on an Debian Etch system no special checking is needed: all these keys _must_ be deleted and replaced by freshly generated ones! After that, please upload your public key again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benutzer SSH-Schlüssel auf wald gelöscht! Aufgrund eines fehlerhaften Patches in dem Debian OpenSSL Paket sind alle SSH-Schlüssel, die auf einem Debian-Etch-System generiert wurden kryptographisch schwach und müssen als kompromittiert gelten. Weitere Informationen sind unter http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571 und http://wiki.debian.org/SSLkeys zu finden. Da viele der von Benutzern hochgeladenen Schlüssel auf wald.intevation.org betroffen sind haben wir uns entschlossen _alle_ Benutzer SSH-Schlüssel von unserem Server zu löschen. Bitte überprüfen Sie Ihre SSH-Schlüssel mit den von Debian bereitgestellten Werkzeugen und generieren sie wenn nötig (nach einem System-Update!) ein neues Schlüsselpaar. Wenn Sie wissen, dass ihr ursprüngliches Schlüsselpaar auf einem Debian-Etch-System generiert wurde brauchen sie keine Überprüfung vorzunehmen: alle diese Schlüssel _müssen_ gelöscht und durch frisch generierte ersetzt werden! Danach laden Sie Ihren öffentlichen Schlüssel bitte wieder hoch. Site Admin Sascha Wilde Fri, 16 May 2008 1:23:24 GMT http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=161 Today we finally switched the theme of wald.intevation.org from the gforge default theme to a customized, a bit more beautiful version. Many thanks to Emanuel Schütze and Benni Kirschner for making this possible! We hope the users on wald will like it, too. May the code grow! Site Admin Sascha Wilde Thu, 28 Feb 2008 11:14:32 GMT http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=154 Bringing out to light what was hidden - is a fitting motto of this maintenance release. Thuban had a few interesting Extensions, but if users saw them depended on their customisation. Now all Extensions can be enabled per installation. Not all of these gems have been fully brought back to life. With ogr you can still open up all formats this powerful library can read. Wms currently needs a makeover which is on the list for the next release. Of course a number of defects have been fixed. The Thuban 1.2.x series seems a little less stable than usual because of the way we are half way there to fully support unicode internally. But thanks to our users, all reports help us to iron out the problems! Thanks to all that have send us feedback! Thuban is an Interactive Geographic Data Viewer, extensible and multi-platform mainly writting in Python. Thuban Bernhard Reiter Sun, 03 Feb 2008 12:58:21 GMT http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=153 After some 0.9 releases this is finally the intial 1.0 release of OpenVAS-Client. OpenVAS-Client is a successor of NessusClient 1.X. The fork happened with NessusClient CVS HEAD 20070704. The reason was that the original author of NessusClient decided to stop active development for this (GTK-based) NessusClient in favour of a newly written QT-based version released as proprietary software. Compared to the NessusClient 1.X release, various new features have been added, especially caching mechanisms to increase transparency and increase plugin load speed. Additionally some visual improvements have been implemented. The following additional languages are supported: german, spanish, swedish and hebrew. Main changes since 0.9.1: * New language: spanish. * New language: hebrew. * Various code cleanups. * Various string fixes. * Added some scripts to support W32 installer packaging.

The fork happened with NessusClient CVS HEAD 20070704. The reason was that the original authors of NessusClient decided to stop active development for this (GTK-based) NessusClient in favour of a newly written QT-based version released as propietary software. This present release 0.9.0 is a development release for testing. It can be used as a client for OpenVAS as well as Nessus server. OpenVAS Jan-Oliver Wagner Fri, 27 Jul 2007 1:49:19 GMT http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=144 With the English manual included in this release it seems justified to bump up the version number. Unfortunately the package is a bit larger now due to this manual and due an update of the GTK+ library. The advantage of that new library is that GPA and Claws do now better integrate into the windows style. gpg4win Werner Koch Thu, 31 May 2007 4:12:06 GMT http://wald.intevation.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=142 after some delay wald.intevation.de has now been moved to a new home as announced in the last site news. Some basic testing of most features has been done and everything looks good. Nevertheless it is quie possible that there are still some hidden glitches caused by the move, so please report problems you might experience. Happy hacking!
