In essence, Trustix is issuing a new Enterprise version, which will contain memory-stack protection. The freely-available standard product will actually have support for memory-stack protection removed. . . .

Hello,

With such an exciting roadmap now being planned for the future
developments in the Trustix range of Secure Linux solutions it was
apparent that a separation of the products was essential to establish
the Trustix brand across multiple market sectors. Using the well proven
routes to market of Comodo and their ever growing reseller network
across multiple geographies Trustix will now be pushed out into a wider
market. The same message that Trustix Secure Linux has consistently
delivered in the past - Security for Servers will be given, however in
order to avoid any confusion over which distribution of Trustix should
be used by which market sector, it was necessary to split the product
range and rename it. Trustix Secure Enterprise Linux will soon be
released to the market. The initial differentiation in the Enterprise
market will focus on the Stack protection technology required by this
market, but it will also consist of support packages and support across
multiple platforms etc. Trustix Secure Linux in its freely available
version will be re-released at revision 2.1, removing the stack
protection support. Both versions will then migrate forward in the
future.

In addition, a number of packages have been updated to address the
problems found in them.
