[Announcement] Version 1.0pre5 released

[Guus Sliepen]

After quite some time version 1.0pre5 has been released. Here is a
summary of the changes:

* Security enhancements:

  * Added sequence number and optional message authentication code to
    the packets.

  * Configurable encryption cipher and digest algorithms.

* More robust handling of dis- and reconnects.

* Added a "switch" and a "hub" mode to allow bridging setups.

* Preliminary support for routing of IPv6 packets.

* Supports Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris.

Again, due to large changes in the protocols this version does not work
together with older versions. Also, some configuration variables have
changed names, most notably you will have to replace TapDevice by Device
in tinc.conf.

It looks like this might be the last release before 1.0.

Thanks,
the Tinc Development Team.
