2.0.4-pre4 posted

Hi,

I have posted version 2.0.4-pre4 of Dazuko. This version uses a new 
"linux_conf" mini-program to identify the configuration of the Linux 
kernel. This allows much more robust identifcation than the former "grep 
autoconf.h" methods. This version also compiles successfully under 
Fedora Core 2. The problem with Fedora Core 2 is that it uses the Linux 
2.6.5 kernel but uses the Linux 2.6.6 LSM. This is yet another example 
of the madness of LSM and I am sure that I am the only one foolish 
enough to continually adapt a kernel module to fit every possible LSM 
configuration out there.

As of 2.0.4-pre4 it is now confirmed possible to compile and install 
Dazuko (with or without capabilities) on:
   SuSE Linux 9.1
   Mandrake 10.0
   Fedora Core 2

This has been a lot of work, but it has benefited Dazuko on Linux 2.6 as 
a whole. There have been reports that there are problems with Mandrake 
10.1, which seems to be using RSBAC. If I can get my hands on some 
Mandrake 10.1 CD's, I could investigate the problem.

For this pre-release I have also ported all new features from the 
FreeBSD 4 extension to the FreeBSD 5 extension. Dazuko now runs very 
very well under the FreeBSD's.
