Yep, bagged and tagged, 3.2 is in beta. Snapshots are up, and you can keep up to date on -current via CVS. Give it a whirl, please test it and make 3.2 a solid release. I'm running it on a couple of systems and find it to be pretty stable, so far.

    Would this be the correct command for 3.2 beta?

    setenv CVS_RSH /usr/bin/ssh;
    setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.usa.openbsd.org:/cvs;
    cd /usr; cvs checkout -P -rOPENBSD_3_2 src

    i updated my src tree the other day and rebuilt the system on my notebook.

    also, i did X (version: 4.2.1) and all the ports i normally use. everything is running smoothly. i haven't updated my workstation yet. it still runs a -current system from a couple weeks ago...

    then it'll work fine.

    What changes do we need to be aware of?

    Also, I know pf has gone through a lot of changes since 3.1. I tried a snapshot awhile back and my pf.conf didn't work anymore, apparently because it looked like the developers were experimenting with unification of pf.conf and nat.conf. Did that make it to 3.2?

    And finally, I'm not holding out much hope here, but a guy can always wish.... is there PAM/nsswitch in 3.2?

  6. By zil0g () on

    I've seen lots of posts to the lists about SMP, and yea, I've seen /smp.html, but might I ask if there is an ETA on it at all?
    3.3?
    >1 year?

    would love to stay with OBSD on my new fileserver :/

    BTW: great work on PF

  7. By AnonymousCanuck () on

    It is good to see the mergeing of pf.conf and nat.conf. It is excellent that PF now properly supports dynamic IPs. From the pf.conf-current manpage:

    Host name resolution and interface to address translation are done at rule set load-time. When the address of an interface (or host name)
    changes (by DHCP or PPP, for instance), the rule set must be reloaded for
    the change to be reflected in the kernel. Interface names surrounded by
    parentheses cause an automatic update of the rule whenever the referenced
    interface changes its address. Reloading the rule set is not required in
    this case.
