Starting with FreeBSD 11.0 + and sendmail 8.15, sendmail uses uncompressed IPv6 addresses by + default, i.e., they will not contain "::". For example, instead + of ::1, it will be 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1. This permits a zero subnet + to have a more specific match, such as different map entries for + IPv6:0:0 vs IPv6:0. This change requires that configuration + data (including maps, files, classes, custom ruleset, etc.) must + use the same format, so make certain such configuration data is + upgrading. As a very simple check search for patterns like + 'IPv6:[0-9a-fA-F:]*::' and 'IPv6::'. To return to the old + behavior, set the m4 option confUSE_COMPRESSED_IPV6_ADDRESSES or + the cf option UseCompressedIPv6Addresses. + 20150630: The default kernel entropy-processing algorithm is now Fortuna, replacing Yarrow. |
