HeX 2.0, codename “Bonobo”, released!

After around 8 months of development, HeX 2.0, codename “Bonobo“, is released!

HeX is a liveCD developed by the rawpacket team that is based on FreeBSD 7.0 and designed to be used for network security monitoring.

There are a lot of new features and a lot of bugfixes that went into this release, but before we get into that, you can grab the iso here:

Some of the new features include:

Check out the HeX Trac page for the full list of what’s changed in this release. You can also check out some screenshots of the new release on Geek00l’s blog post. In addition to this release, we’ve begun working on the HeX Sensor project, for a drop-in NSM sensor, hopefully we’ll have a release of that soon!

Thanks to the development team for all the work that went into this awesome release! Feel free to leave a comment about any new features you’d like to see, or join us on the mailing list or irc (#rawpacket on Freenode) to hang out and talk about ideas for the next release. Enjoy!

Hex and NSM-Console source now browsable

You can now directly browse the source code for both the Hex liveCD and the source code for NSM-Console directly from the Rawpacket Hex trac.

If you’re interested in upcoming features in NSM-Console, you can check out the latest TODO file here.

Thanks go to spoonfork who switched us over from CVS to SVN without any major headaches :)
