WhiteBox Enterprise Linux 3.0 Respin 1 now available via BitTorrent or 
ftp.

New & improved features included are:

* This release includes all errata released by RedHat through May 31, 
  2004.

* x86_64 moves from a outside contributed port to an officially 
  supported platform on an equal footing with i386.  Many thanks go to 
  Pasi Pirhonen for the original porting efforts.  Having it as a base 
  made my job almost trivial.

* The problem with up2date and mirrors has been solved.  The lastest
  up2date from Fedora Core 2 has been ported in to get transparent
  support for mirrors. With eight mirrors distributed across North 
  America, Europe and Australia, access to errata should be easier than 
  ever.

* rhn-applet has been fully ported for this release and added to the
  default install.  This modified version goes by the name of "Up2Date 
  Network Alert Notification Tool".

* Support for third party package repositories has been improved.
  Detailed instructions for using three repos are included in
  /usr/sysconfig/rhn/sources for fast setup.

* Tora is now linked against Oracle 10g and mysql. (i386 only)
