Hi,
We have released zorp-0.7.9, here's the NEWS entry:
zorp 0.7.9
* new protocol proxy: finger
* new option: --version, displays version and compilation info
(try: zorpctl version)
* POSIX 1003.1e capabilities support, Zorp drops all capabilities,
and enables them only when needed. (for now only
CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE (for binding low numbered ports) and
CAP_NET_ADMIN (for transparent proxying) is used)
* HTTP: implemented CONNECT method, needed to use HTTP in
nontransparent mode with https urls.
* proxies written in python actually work, an example:
doc/examples/python_proxy.py was added which implements
a finger proxy (alternative to the one implemented in Zorp)
* new flexible Zone class, backported from the 0.9 branch. Changes
policy interface.
* updated documentation and examples to reflect changes in
policy interface
* moving towards the new logging mechanism (look at --log-spec and
--log-tags in zorp(8))
* and as always: bugfixes
Debian package building is currently broken at the moment. It'll be fixed
in the next release.
