11     - Updated to Snort-2.3 rules.  FWSnort can convert a total of 1710

14       http://www.snort.org/dl/rules/snortrules-snapshot-CURRENT.tar.gz
15     - Updated to standard [+], [-], and [*] prefixes for info, warning
16       and die logging messages.

18
19 fwsnort-0.6.3 (04/04/2004):
20     - Added ignore functionality for both IPs and networks
21     - Split --ipt-block into --ipt-drop and --ipt-reject to add DROP
22       or REJECT rules respectively.
23     - Added --add-deleted option to allow rules in the "deleted.rules"
24       file to be added.
25
26 fwsnort-0.6.2 (03/19/2004):
27     - Added --internal-net and --dmz-net options so that internal and
28       dmz networks can be manually specified without having to parse
29       the output of ifconfig.  This is most useful for running fwsnort
30       on a linux system that is acting as a bridge where no ip addresses
31       are assigned to the interfaces.
32     - Bugfix for missing icmp-port-unreachable rejects for UDP packets.

34 fwsnort-0.6.1 (02/01/2004):
35     - Bugfix for not adding dmz interface rules to INPUT chain.
36     - Bugfix for not getting the DMZ interface network.
37
38 fwsnort-0.6 (01/04/2004):
39     - Speed increase and disk access decrease by writing iptables
40       commands to the iptables script only after all lines have been
41       generated.
42     - Bugfix for DMZ interface.
43     - Bugfix for multiple ip_proto fields.
44     - Removed the ip protocol as an allowed protocol for translation.
45     - Bugfix for negated port numbers.
46     - Removed "<-" rule direction since not even snort supports this.
47     - Fixed snort rule updates from snort.org.
48
49 fwsnort-0.5 (12/21/2003):
50     - Added "-j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset" for tcp sessions
51       if the --ipt-block option is specified.
52     - Added ability to download latest snort rules from snort.org.
53     - Added --no-ipt-jumps.
54     - Added better checking for iptables build characteristics such
55       as the LOG target and wether or not the ipv4options extension
56       is compiled in.
57     - Added config preservation code from psad in install.pl.
