v0.3.4 of the Apollo UI has been Released!

Security:
-Fix vulrablilites when dashboard is exposed to public IP
-Bitcoind RPC is now randomly generated internally and only accessible via dashboard settings
-FutureBit user system password is now updated to dashboard password during initial setup

Feature:
-Option to enable Bitcoin Node to run via TOR network
-Users can directly edit bitcoin.conf via dashboard and edit their own settings (ie ipallow for external wallet connections etc)
-Better error handling and displaying UI faults to user

Fixes:
-UI stat bug cause by old corrupt log files
-Issue causing internal error when both wifi and ethernet interfaces are used
-Additional bug fixes and improvements

You should see a yellow update button on your UI, press this to start the update and wait until either the UI automatically reloads, or refresh your browser once you see your Apollo start mining again.

If you encounter any issues wait at least 15 minutes before you do anything as rebooting or power cycling during an update thats not complete can brick your system. Rebooting should fix any UI issues after the update.

Updated image with new UI as well as updated OS subsystem will be released next week.

Also encountered a small issue where if your Apollo has over 2-3 months of uptime, pulling the new update from git might not work, so if you have a really long uptime reboot your Apollo before starting the update (good practice either way to reboot it before performing updates as that clears memory and caches that could stall the update).

Today is July 21, 2022 and I have yet to see or receive the update to v3.4.  I am still on v3.2. Where can I get the update?
