Changes:
This release comes with numerous new features, including new LIDS (log-based IDS) support for Solaris BSM, Asterisk, Checkpoint, Postfix SASL, Smart Defense, Debian package, and Shorewall logs. It also comes with support for localized Pure-FTPd log messages (in more than 12 different languages) and DJB multilog. Installation was translated to Greek, and the agent_control tool was added to better manage the agents directly from the server.
