Trustix Secure Linux 3.0 alpha

Hello,


Trustix Secure Linux 3.0 alpha is here!


Our rapidly expanding new customer base has meant we only had to concentrate on
one area of improvement - making installation really, really simple.  "Viper"
our new installer should meet everyone's needs....customers old and new, and
many new features are ideal for our growing enterprise community.

Having built an enviable reputation for stability and security, Trustix proves
consistently to be one of the quickest organizations in the world to issue
security patches and updates. More importantly the Trustix secure patch
management system - SWUP (Software Updater) deploys patches to mission critical
applications securely efficiently and effectively. This latest release further
strengthens the security message and sets a rock solid baseline for new and
existing customers of the free to use - Trustix Secure Linux - distribution.

Complementing our mission to produce the most reliable server OS available,
Trustix have also made huge strides towards making Linux easier to configure
and administrate. Server automation tools such as CP+ facilitate the quick and
easy, web based administration of your dedicated Trustix? OS based server -
simplifying the usually complex management of tasks such as Samba file sharing,
mySQL databases, firewall configuration, web site hosting including DNS
management and email.
 
Trustix remains committed to the open source community with Trustix Secure
Linux 3.0 being the next step in the evolution of the world's most secure free
commercially supported Linux distribution.
