OutPost Pro and TooLeaky, Firehole etc.

[Paul Wilders]

In regard to OutPost being able to cope with:

- TooLeaky
- Firehole
- Outbound

This message from the CEO from Agnitum/OutPost might be in order:


{QUOTE-> Mikhail Zakhryapin, Agnitum Ltd.:

Thank you for providing us with the results of the tests. We are aware that Outpost Firewall has not passed all five leak tests because we have performed internal tests here at Agnitum. This vulnerability was discovered several month ago and just after that we started working on the new version of our engine because we consider this vulnerability as very serious. Alpha version of Outpost Firewall that we are testing right now is able to block all these leak tests. We plan to release it for public in the middle of April. <-QUOTE}

regards.

This is good news.
I really like Outpost Pro.
I would hate to give it up.
I'm counting the days until the middle of April.

I've asked Agnitum if new version is ready, they replied yes it's called V1.1. goto download page. * It pass all 5 tests as on Pcflanc. *

I can't see the version number on the download page. *I'm using 1.0.1511 trial. *

Can we assume if we download it will be 1.1 when installed/setup? * Anyone like to try?

I went to the downloads page and downloaded Outpost Pro;

Version - 1.0.1511 is what came down.

Version 1.1 hasn't even been released to beta test yet.

Could you get me a link to the thread where you were told version 1.1 was ready?
I'm a beta tester and I haven't seen ver. 1.1 yet. *:o

Geez, you guys still waiting on that ?.......
I do know one firewall that has had that problem fixed since early december ! ;) :D

Here's the email I sent to Agnitum, and their reply.

My question:
Does the new outpost ver 1.0.1511 pass all the leaktests as mentioned in
> Pcflank?
> (Leaktest
> Yalta
> Tooleaky
> Firehole
> Outbound)
> My trial version of 1.0.1511.1038 does not pass Tooleaky.

Reply is this :

Current version of Outpost passes leak tests right as shown on PcFlank.

New version 1.1 will pass all these tests.

By the way, you could see this answer right on PcFlank site, as our
director's comments are displayed there as well.

Please ask any questions regarding Outpost on our forum
at http://www.agnitum.com/forum/

I think Agnitum and me have our wires crossed, 1.0.1511 passes all PcFlanc tests, but not the ones listed above.
Outpost 1.1 will (when released) pass all tests, PcFlanc internal and external.

Thats my understanding now. * I should have looked at their forum site first. *

Mickey: *I've got Outpost .1511and LooknStop 2.03b running at the same time, default values mostly, *if I remember.
No crashes yet. *
