Fixes:
[1] Fix to items under the File menu not working on Windows 9x or Windows NT.
[2] Fix to problem with the “Reset Attempts Count” for the Ban List. If you had an entry in the Ban List window highlighted and selected “Reset Attempts Count” from the right-click menu, it was resetting the counts for ALL entries, not just the highlighted entry.
8Signs Firewall v2.25 (as compared to v2.2a)
Minor Improvements:
[1] Column sorting has been added to the Ban List display.
[2] Firewall will now remember “last save” path
[3] Added confirmation dialog when firewall setting is changed to Block All
[4] Log window can now be changed from descending to ascending by clicking on the Time column header
Bug Fixes:
[1] Fix for several bugs that could cause crashing
[2] When editing a rule, if it was set to show a port range and you changed it to “one number”, the second port field was still displayed.
[3] When editing a rule, the new Tarpit option was shown only when the Ban option was selected. The Tarpit option is available for Block rules and is not limited to Block+Ban. If you choose just Block+Tarpit, then only connections that match this rule are tarpitted. An offender could be tarpitted on port 21, let’s say, but be allowed to connect on port 80. Just for completeness, if the rule were set to Block+Ban+Tarpit and they connect and match this rule, they are banned and tarpitted and any attempt to connect on another port has them tarpitted as well.
[4] Fix to crash caused by sorting an empty list in the Groups dialog
[5] Fix to Groups import not adding new entries to the correct group
[6] Fix to Groups import not handling duplicate entries correctly
[7] Fix to error on Save As dialog caused by firewall looking for an incorrect path
[8] Fix to ban list import not working correctly when importing IP addresses that contain a leading 0 in any octet
[9] Fix to rules that use Groups not working correctly with the rule was created using the Remote Admin tool |
