Hi,

The new version of SPY - a kernel module for monitoring syscalls - is
available for download from:

	http://www.freebsd.org/~abial/spy/

Please read the README.txt supplied with the package. This module has been
tested only with FreeBSD 4.0 - it may require some minor changes to work
with other releases.

Summary of changes from the previous version:

* each syscall can be intercepted, and either monitored (with adjustable
level of details) or disabled based on process credentials

* setting of per-syscall monitoring/disable options has been implemented

* options now have symbolic names, rather than being binary masks.

* sysctl tunables now reside under kern.spy.* instead of creating their
own root category.

* a manpage - thank to Sheldon Hearn, who provided manified version of
README included in previous release - it was a good skeleton for the new
manpage.

As usually, comments and suggestions are welcome.

Andrzej Bialecki
