Heartbleed vulnerability in OpenSSL
</title>
<description>
A <a href="http://heartbleed.com/">serious security
vulnerability</a> has been discovered in OpenSSL. All stable
NixOS releases prior to version
<strong>13.10.35708.15a465c</strong> are vulnerable. (You can
see your current version by running <tt>nixos-version</tt>.) To
upgrade to the latest NixOS version, run <tt>nixos-rebuild
switch --upgrade</tt>. You can verify whether you are safe by
running
<pre class="code">
$ nix-store -qR /run/current-system | grep openssl
</pre>
If this shows any OpenSSL version prior to 1.0.1g, you may be
vulnerable.

ISSRE paper on NixOS-based system testing
</title>
<description>
The paper <a href="docs/papers.html#issre10">“Automating System
Tests Using Declarative Virtual Machines”</a> (by Sander van der
Burg and Eelco Dolstra) has been accepted for presentation at
the <a href="http://www.issre2010.org/">21st IEEE International
Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2010)</a>.
It describes how system tests with complex requirements on the
environment (such as remote machines, network topologies, system
services or root privileges) can be written succinctly using <a
href="https://svn.nixos.org/websvn/nix/nixos/trunk/tests/bittorrent.nix">declarative
specifications</a> of the machines needed by the test
environment. From these specifications we can automatically
instantiate (networks of) virtual machines. This is what we use
for <a
href="https://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixos/trunk/jobstatus">automated
regression testing of NixOS itself</a>. A <a
href="https://nixos.org/~eelco/pubs/decvms-issre2010-submitted.pdf">draft
of the paper</a> is available.

Xfce in NixOS
</title>
<description>
<a href="http://www.xfce.org/"><img class="inline" src="logo/xfce-small.png" alt="Xfce screenshot" /></a>
NixOS now supports <a href="http://www.xfce.org/">Xfce</a>, a
modern, light-weight desktop environment. It can be enabled by
setting the NixOS configuration value
<tt>services.xserver.desktopManager.xfce.enable</tt> to
<tt>true</tt>. (<a

Nix logo
</title>
<description>
<a href="logo/nixos-hires.png">
<img class="inline" src="logo/nixos-lores.png" alt="Nix
logo" /></a> Long overdue, the Nix project finally has a logo!
The logo was originally created by <a
href="http://arbitrary.name/">Simon Frankau</a> for the <a
href="https://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_logos/New_logo_ideas">Haskell
logo competition</a>, who kindly gave us permission to use it
for the Nix project. (The snowflake motif is even more
appropriate for Nix, because <em>nix</em> is Latin for
<em>snow</em>.) Any further modifications are entirely our
fault.
