Superb Mini Server 1.5.2 Is Now Available for Download

Superb Mini Server (SMS) 1.5.2 has been released. It’s a small update to the Slackware-based Linux distro aimed at small servers. It comes with an updated Linux kernel, as well as some updated packages. New ones include support for the Tcl scripting language and HFS (HTTL File Server) utilities. It also comes with a new visual package to complete the name change and rebranding. Superb Mini Server has now changed its name from SMS, which, in turn, was short for Slack Mini Server.

“This minor release clears the name of SMS to Superb Mini Server and brings new graphics and logos. Some packages upgraded and two new packages added, hfsutils and tcl. In this release we switched to postfix with no vda patch as the default MTA for SMS. A version with vda patch is available in SMS.Native.CD-1.5.2-Extra.iso,” the release announcement read.

“ndiswrapper, dahdi-linux and iptables_l7 rebuilt for new kernel, don't forget to run lilo after the upgrade. In SMS64 fixed the segfault of metamail and added lost/missing curl package. A Virtual Appliance of SMS-1.5.2 is also available,” it added.
