NetBSD is a free, secure, > and highly portable Unix-like Open Source operating system available > for many platforms, from 64-bit Opteron machines and desktop systems > to handheld and embedded devices. Its clean design and advanced > features make it excellent in both production and research > environments, and it is user-supported with complete source. Many > applications are easily available through pkgsrc, the NetBSD Packages > Collection. > > Major achievements in NetBSD 4.0 include support for version 3 of the > Xen virtual machine monitor, Bluetooth, many new device drivers and > embedded platforms based on ARM, PowerPC and MIPS CPUs. New network > services include iSCSI target (server) code and an implementation of > the Common Address Redundancy Protocol. Also, system security was > further enhanced with restrictions of mprotect(2) to enforce W^X > policies, the Kernel Authorization framework, and improvements of the > Veriexec file integrity subsystem, which can be used to harden the > system against trojan horses and virus attacks. Please read below for > a list of changes in NetBSD 4.0. > > NetBSD 4.0 runs on 54 different system architectures featuring 17 > machine architectures across 17 distinct CPU families, and is being > ported to more. The NetBSD 4.0 release contains complete binary > releases for 51 different machine types, with the platforms amigappc, > bebox and ews4800mips released in source form only. Complete source > and binaries for NetBSD 4.0 are available for download at many sites > around the world. A list of download sites providing FTP, AnonCVS, > SUP, and other services is provided at the end of this announcement; > the latest list of available download sites may also be found at > http://www.NetBSD.org/mirrors/. We encourage users who wish to install > via a CD-ROM ISO image to download via BitTorrent by using the torrent > files supplied in the ISO image area. A list of hashes for the NetBSD > 4.0 distribution has been signed with the well-connected PGP key for > the NetBSD Security Officer: > ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/security/hashes/NetBSD-4.0_hashes.asc > > NetBSD is free. All of the code is under non-restrictive licenses, and > may be used without paying royalties to anyone. Free support services > are available via our mailing lists and website. Commercial support is > available from a variety of sources; some are listed at > http://www.NetBSD.org/gallery/consultants.html. More extensive > information on NetBSD is available from our website: > > http://www.NetBSD.org/ > > Dedication > > NetBSD 4.0 is dedicated to the memory of Jun-Ichiro "itojun" Hagino, > who died in October 2007. Itojun was a member of the KAME project, > which provided IPv6 and IPsec support; he was also a member of the > NetBSD core team (the technical management for the project), and one > of the Security Officers. Due to Itojun's efforts, NetBSD was the > first open source operating system with a production ready IPv6 > networking stack, which was included in the base system before many > people knew what IPv6 was. We are grateful to have known and worked > with Itojun, and we know that he will be missed. This release is > therefore dedicated, with thanks, to his memory. > -- > Alessandro de Souza Rocha > Administrador de Redes e Sistemas > Freebsd-BR User #117 > ops esquecei de passa o link. http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-announce/2007/12/19/0000.html
