1.44 ! tb 59: <li><a href="https://www.OpenSSH.com">OpenSSH</a> (supporting both the
1.2 mpech 60: SSH1 and SSH2 protocols) is now at version 3.5. Privilege separation is
1.1 miod 61: now enabled by default for greater robustness.
62: <p>
63:
1.12 deraadt 64: <li>Non-executable stack on i386, sparc, sparc64, alpha, powerpc.
65: No-exec data and bss on sparc, sparc64, and alpha. This makes some
66: classes of future potential buffer overflows unexploitable.
67: <p>
68:
69: <li>Apache runs chroot'd by default. To disable this, see the new <b>-u</b>
70: option.
71: <p>
72:
1.13 deraadt 73: <li>A very significant reduction in setuid binaries. Many of those binaries
74: which still retain setuid have been modified so the operations needing root
1.14 deraadt 75: are done early on, and then privilege is revoked immediately after that.
1.13 deraadt 76: <p>
77:
1.11 deraadt 78: <li>Asymmetric and symmetric hardware encryption support is now enabled by
1.10 deraadt 79: default, if you have such devices in your machine.
80: <p>
81:
1.1 miod 82: <li>As usual, improvements to the documentation, notably the man pages and
83: the Web FAQ. A larger part of the website is now available in several
84: languages.
85: <p>
86:
87: <li>More complete collection and better tested set of "ports".
1.16 pvalchev 88: setuid/setgid ports have been significantly reduced as well. Many of the
89: ones that remain setuid have been modified to revoke privileges as early
90: as possible.
1.1 miod 91: <p>
92:
1.16 pvalchev 93: <li>Over 1800 pre-built and tested packages.

150: <p>
151: Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
152: paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
153: form of install. The instructions for doing an ftp (or other style
154: of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
155: so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
156: purchased a CDROM instead.
157: <p>

178: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

181: <h3><font color="#e00000">OpenBSD/i386:</font></h3>
182: <ul>
183: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
184: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
185: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
1.3 jufi 186: <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppy32.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
1.1 miod 187:
188: <p>
1.3 jufi 189: Use <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyB32.fs</i> instead for greater scsi controller
190: support, or <i>CD1:3.2/i386/floppyC32.fs</i> for better laptop support.
1.1 miod 191:
192: <p>
193: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to read the included INSTALL.i386 document.
194:
195: <p>
196: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
1.39 sthen 197: at <i>CD:/3.2/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS, use the <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> utility. The following is an example usage of <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>, where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or "rfd0a".

211: is the short name for the CDROM drive (you can check with <i>show dev</i>).
212:
1.3 jufi 213: <p>If you can't boot from CDROM, write <i>CD1:3.2/alpha/floppy32.fs</i> or
214: <i>CD1:3.2/alpha/floppyB32.fs</i> (depending on your machine) to a diskette and

250: <p>
251: If your sparc does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
1.42 tj 252: To do so you need to write "CD3:3.2/sparc/floppy32.fs" to a floppy. For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#4.1">this page</a>. To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your ROM.

262:
263: <p>
264: If your sparc doesn't have a floppy drive nor a CD drive, you can either
265: setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
266: INSTALL.sparc file.

1.1 miod 282: the disk and boot with <i>boot disk:b</i>.

338: <p>
339: Certainly, the OpenBSD ports system is not complete. It is doubtful it
340: will ever be. However, it is growing very fast and getting more stable.
341: Almost all ports provided with this release should build without problems
342: on most architectures (over 2000 packages build on i386, for instance).

1.1 miod 348: source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
349: order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree

357: [Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
358: with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
359: server.]
360: <p>
361: Note that most ports are available as packages through ftp. Updated
362: packages for the 3.2 release will be made available if problems arise.
363: <p>
364: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
365: would like to know more, the mailing list ports@openbsd.org is a good
