            - Added checkmd5 module which will generate a list of md5 sums of
              all regular files on the system. This list will not be in lsat.out,

              The above will speed things up if the user does not want to check
              the local files again.
            - Added checkcfg module (RedHat and derivative specific).
              checkcfg prints output of chkconfig --list and is the last module run
              in lsat. This gives the user a visual inspection of all services run
              in each runlevel.

            - checkinetd should really work now, verified on RedHat 7.x (Nordi & Triode, mostly Nordi)

            - Fixed error in checkpkgs, not reporting bad packages.
            - Fixed error in dostuff module, failure on some shellcode.
            - Added checkrpm module and README.checkrpm for checkrpm module. Checkrpm
              checks and reports rpm integrity on RedHat based systems.
            - Checkrpm is enabled by the -r switch, it doe not run if lsat is given with no args.
    - 0.5.4 - 05/06/2002

            - verbose output cleaned up, out of alignment. (Nordi)
            - lsat now prints module name it is running during execution.
    	- -s option added for silent mode, lsat only reports starting and ending in this mode.
            - checkfiles module now checks for files with no owner and no group.
    - 0.5.2 - 05/03/2002
            - checknetforward module was not in lsatmain. :O
            - fixed output in checknetforward, should be better.
            - added checklimits module to check limits.conf file.
    - 0.5.1 - 05/02/2002
            - checkinetd was still segfaulting under linux kernel 2.4. FIXED.

            - Added function in lsatmain to clean up mess if a module bombs out.
            - Output format has been changed slightly in appearance.
            - Modified all modules to use module dostuff for creating, writing, deleting tempfiles
              and for writing out to outfile. This should make module creation easier as one can
              concentrate on module content and not opening/writing/etc files.
            - checkinetd broken under redhat 7.x (or those that use xinetd.d) Should be FIXED.
            - Cleaned up verbose msgs.
    - 0.4.5 - 04/26/2002
            - Added checknetforward module which checks for IPV4 forwarding on the system.
            - Since all files written are now chmod 600, umask is no longer changed in any lsat program.
              A note is given to the user to check their umask settings.
            - Fixed output typo in checkwrite (it checks suid/sgid files/directories).
            - Header typo in checkpkgs.
            - Added more packages to check in checkpkgs module.
            - checkpkgs module was not checking all pkgs. Fixed.
            - Added check that vmlinuz is chmod 644 in checkfiles.
    	- Added check for syslog.pid (syslogd.pid) to make sure it is chmod 644 in
              checkfiles.

    	- Thanks to Nordi for the tipoff on the buffer/symlink attacks I missed 	  while trying to fix them in 0.4.3.
    - 0.4.3 - 04/19/2002 -
    	- Added checkkbd function to check for ctrl-alt-del or STOP-A disable.

    	- Fixed module tempfiles. These were not being created chmod 0600 either.
    	- The two above require include fcntl.h. I hope this does not break things.
            - Added more docs to lsatmain.c
    - 0.4.2 - 04/18/2002 -
    	- Again, more docs/cleanups in lsatmain.c

    	- Added checkrc module. Checks rc scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d or
    	  /etc/rcn.d depending on which system it is on.
    	- Added checkftpusers module. This checks to see that all users
    	  in /etc/passwd are in /etc/ftpusers.
    	- Set umask before writing any files.
    	- Set umask back to sensible value, regardless of previous value...
              (done so if user modifies files after running lsat the user will have a sensible umask)
    	- lsat bails if it can not set umask.
    	- Fixed error msg typos in lsatmain.c, checknet.c and checkfiles.c
    - 0.4.0 - 04/15/2002 -

            - Now using mkstemp in lsatmain.c instead of just making a file.

    	- Error msgs in all modules will (should) report module name on error.
    	- Now using mkstemp in all modules.
