开发版m0n0wall 1.3 Beta 17

        m0n0wall计划的目标是创建一份完整的、内置的防火墙软件包，当它配合PC使用时，能够提供商用防火墙机器的所有重要功能（连同易用性在内），而其价钱却只是后者的一小部分（因为m0n0wall是自由软件）。m0n0wall基于FreeBSD的一个精简版本，并带有一个web服务器（thttpd）、PHP以及其他一些实用工具。整套系统配置存储于单个的XML文本文件以对系统透明。m0n0wall很可能是首个拥有用PHP实现的启动配置的UNIX系统，而通常这是依靠shell脚本的，此外，它把整个系统配置都用XML格式存储。

        Manuel Kasper has released the seventeenth beta build of m0n0wall 1.3, a complete software firewall based on FreeBSD: "m0n0wall 1.3 beta is based on FreeBSD 6.x and has better hardware support than the FreeBSD 4.x based versions (up to version 1.23x), as well as a few new features. Changes: converted from BRIDGE to if_bridge, removed multi-interface bridge check and checkbox under Advanced for filtering bridge since member interfaces will now always be filtered; fixed a problem with ipnat refusing to create new RDR translation entries in the NAT table if a MAP entry exists for the same port; fixed problems when using advanced outbound NAT rules with destination matching; fixed DHCP lease page to only show the last lease for a given IP address; fixed for IPv6 pages in user/group manager...."
