Version 0.6 of dialmon is now available. This contains all the new stuff from the 0.5-x releases; can also handle normal and shadow passwords out-of-the-box. Many thanks to everyone who has tested and commented on the 0.5-x releases. It is currently available from ftp://195.92.31.34/pub/dialmon-0.6; there is a .tgz source file, plus RPMs for RedHat 4.2 and 5.1. I'm not in a position to definitvely check the 4.2 RPMs, but they have been generated exactly as for the 5.1 RPMs, so they _should_ work. The dialmon home page http://www.quaking.demon.co.uk/dialmon.html has now been brought up to date, and contains links to the source and RPMs, plus the LSM. The LSM is at the bottom of this mailing. I don't seem to be able to upload to sunite at the moment. /pub/Linux/Incoming won't work (as the message says it won't), but /incoming/Linux does not exist. Dialmon will hopefully get there in the nwe year. I'm off on holiday until the new year, so comments and bug reports are welcome as usual, but don't expect a quick reply.
