Hello,

I have just pushed on website the new release of Keepalived. This 
release has been sponsorized by "Creative Internet Techniques", many 
thanks to them for supporting devel efforts.

The ChangeLog for this release is :

2003-03-17  Alexandre Cassen  <[email protected]>
         * keepalived-1.0.1 released.
         * This release has been sponsorized by :
           Creative Internet Techniques, <www.httpd.net>
           Please visit sponsor homepage, open minded people here !
         * Fixed some Makefile and autoconf code dependence issues.
         * Move keepalived.conf.SYNOPSIS and samples into "doc"
           directory.
         * Enhanced HTTP|SSL check to support large url. Get buffer
           request is now 2KBytes.
         * Removed \n in healthchecker smtp_alert call. This cause some
           troubles with MTA like qmail.
           Thanks go to John Koyle, <[email protected]>.
         * Added support to netlink route as global keyword
           "static_routes".
           Look at doc/samples/keepalived.conf.routes. Routes specified
           into this block will be added during daemon bootstrap and
           removed during daemon shutdown. Differential conf parsing is
           enabled for this block, removing/adding static_route can be
           done on the fly sending SIGHUP signal to daemon.
         * VRRP : Added support to "virtual_routes". This is the same as
           virtual_address. Those routes are set when VRRP instance enter
           MASTER state and removed otherwise. Differential conf parsing
           is enabled for this block. This concept extend VRRP and bring
           dynamic routing as a "route takeover" concept.
         * VRRP : Rewrote the VRRP vip handling to use template lib list
           structure. VIP and E-VIP are no longer a simple array
           reallocated. List library is used to limite code duplication.
         * VRRP : Extended virtual_ipaddres and
           virtual_ipaddress_excluded
           block to support "dev" specification. So that a VIP can be set
           to a specific interface instead of default runing VRRP
           instance interface.
         * VRRP : Added support to "track_interface". Interesting for use
           with vlan interface. The concept here is to drive VRRP FSM
           according do both "interface" and "track_interface" state. If
           tracked interface is down or instance interface is down then
           VRRP instance transit to FAULT state. For use with vlan, add
           track to interface vlan belong to. Look at
           doc/sample/keepalived.conf.track_interface for sample.
           doc/keepalived.conf.SYNOPSIS for configuration details.
         * VRRP : Extended FSM FAULT state to keep in fault if
           track_interface still fault.
         * VRRP : Extended sync group design to test if group is unary or
           not.
         * Some code cleaning and cosmetics enhancements.


Any comments welcome,

Best regards,
Alexandre
