				CHANGES
				=======

version 8.2.1 (Jun 2, 2015):
	- added TCP keepalives between client and server - TCP-based consoles
	  already had the code - this was mostly an oversight
	- patch for SEGV and task execution - patch by Artem Savkov
	  <asavkov@redhat.com>
	- expanded break sequences from [1-9] to [1-9a-z] - based on patch by
	  Artem Savkov <asavkov@redhat.com>

version 8.2.0 (Apr 20, 2014):
	- added --with-trust-uds-cred which uses getsockopt() to fetch and
	  trust the client uid, bypassing password lookups - patch by Anton
	  Lundin <glance@acc.umu.se>
	- missing closedir() causing memory leak - patch by Anton Lundin
	  <glance@acc.umu.se>
	- sending a break signal over IPMI was broken - based on patch by
	  Alexander Y.  Fomichev <git.user@gmail.com>
	- IPv6 support (marked as experimental at this point because it's
	  untested (except by the author), there's a lack of documentation, and
	  I'm hoping for non-getifaddrs() system support) - patch by Milos
	  Vyletel <milos.vyletel@gmail.com>
	- no more K&R compiler support

version 8.1.20 (Apr 4, 2014):
	- IPMI serial over LAN support via FreeIPMI - based on patch by Anton
	  D. Kachalov <mouse@yandex-team.ru>
	- minor cleanup of code, removal of gcc warnings and such that should
	  have no fuctional change

version 8.1.19 (Sep 26, 2013):
	- prevent select/read loop when EOF on non-pty input (console) -
	  reported by Chris Marget <chris@marget.com>

	  Zonker <consoleteam@gmail.com>
	- fixed memory leak using timestamps - patch by Karvendhan M.
	  <Karvendhan.M@netapp.com>
	- deprecated --with-cycladests (noop now) - cross-compilation should
	  work without it as autologin now expects setpgrp() to take two
	  arugments instead of testing for it
	- no automatic checks for an empty password when using PAM
	  authentication - based on discussion with Ryan Kirkpatrick
	  <linux@rkirkpat.net>
	- added 'sslcacertificatefile' and 'sslcacertificatepath' client
	  configuration options - based on patch by Aki Tuomi <cmouse@cmouse.fi>
	- added 'sslcacertificatefile' and 'sslreqclientcert' server
	  configuration options
	- added --with-req-server-cert to force clients to require a certificate
	  from the server when using SSL - based on emails with Thor Simon
	  <tls@coyotepoint.com>
	- added server-side tasks (see conserver.cf man page) that are invoked
	  by the client (useful for things like IPMI-based power control of
	  servers, invoking resets of terminal server ports, or anything else
	  that requires scripting) - ideas from patch by Anton Lundin
	  <glance@acc.umu.se> and discussion on mailing list (2011)
	- added 'confirm' option to break sequences
	- added 'breaklist' option to limit exposure of break sequences to
	  consoles
	- sending of break signals is now announced to all attached clients

	  character string match previously
	- hostname aliases now checked against access lists and the
	  matched name is used for logging

version 8.0.0-beta1 (Jul 4, 2003):
	- ***NOTICE*** the format of conserver.cf and conserver.passwd
	  has completely changed.  see the INSTALL file for
	  upgrade instructions (it should be "fairly painless").
	  some documentation has been updated to reflect the new world,
	  some hasn't - my goal for beta2 is to have all the docs updated
	- many command-line options now also conserver.cf options options
	- POSIX termios interface now required for compilation - some
	  POSIX requirements were already in the code and others will
	  undoubtedly creep in as time goes by
	- configure --with-regex option removed because of conserver.cf
	  and conserver.passwd changes
	- added -S option to server for syntax checking of the
	  configuration file - suggested by Dave Stuit <djs@tellme.com>
	- authorized users now either have r/w or r/o access to consoles
	- getpassword.o replaces getpass() and getpassphrase() so we can
	  get any string length
	- fixed rm commands in test script - patch by Petter Reinholdtsen
	  <pere@hungry.com>

	  <jorgen.hagg@axis.com>
	- added dmalloc and openssl version numbers to -V output
	- reordered includes for openssl-0.9.7a compatibility
	- conserver.rc looks at pidfile to find the master pid - suggested

	- misplaced code regarding --with-regex - patch by Andreas Wrede
	  <andreas@planix.com>
	- added password support for HP-UX trusted systems - immense
	  help by Greg Brown <gregb_ka6max@hotmail.com>

	  wasn't being cleared correctly - reported by Dave Stuit
	  <djs@tellme.com>
	- server is now more forgiving about errors instead of just
	  giving up and shutting everything down
	- consoles that have trouble coming up (and are forced down)
	  now log when they come back up - suggested by Dave Stuit
	  <djs@tellme.com>

version 7.2.6 (Mar 10, 2003):
	- the -b conserver option was mostly broken (since 7.2.0)

	- bug with multiple interfaces and -M option not maching hostname
	  in configuration file - patch by Igor Sviridov <sia@nest.org>
	- memory leak using openssl library plugged
	- automatic reinitialization of failed consoles now retries
	  every minute like the manpage says it does - reported by Chris
	  Fowler <cfowler@outpostsentinel.com>
	- when -R option is used, substring matches on console names
	  from clients only match local console names (and if that
	  fails just remote console names) but ambiguous name list
	  returns both local and remote consoles - suggested by Todd
	  Stansell <todd@stansell.org>

version 7.2.5 (Jan 27, 2003):
	- fixed many documentation bugs - reported by Dave Stuit
	  <djs@tellme.com>
	- added -I option to client which operates like -i, but on the
	  primary conserver only - suggested by Dave Stuit
	  <djs@tellme.com>
	- added SIGUSR2, which does not reread the configuration file,
	  but does everything else SIGHUP does - suggested at LISA 2002
	- fixed bug where LOGDIR setting gets used even if no logfile
	  is wanted
	- added -R option to server to prevent client redirection to
	  other conserver hosts - suggested by Todd Stansell
	  <todd@stansell.org>

version 7.2.4 (Oct 14, 2002):

	  --with-pam - reported by Jesper Frank Nemholt <jfn@dassic.com>
	- client now prefers $LOGNAME, then $USER, then the current uid
	  for its -l default - suggested by Dave Stuit <djs@tellme.com>
	- putting back socklen_t usage - it's the right thing to do,
	  so tell me where it breaks things
	- configure options --with-cffile and --with-pwdfile now
	  recognize fully-qualified pathnames - suggested by Kjell
	  Andresen <kjell.andresen@usit.uio.no>

version 7.2.3 (Sep 23, 2002):
	- checking for duplicate console names got lost in the major
	  7.2.0 rewrite of that code.  it's back now, with a couple of
	  other edge-case fixes i noticed while scanning the code -
	  reported by Dave Stuit <djs@tellme.com>
	- added --with-pam and PAM authentication support - suggested
	  by Stu May <jsmay@wasteofbits.com>
	- added -F server option to prevent automatic reinitialization
	  of failed consoles ('|' syntax consoles which exit with a

	  LePera <lepera@us.ibm.com> and Malcolm Gibbs
	  <Malcolm.Gibbs005@msd.govt.nz>
	- successful automatic reinitialization of consoles now attaches
	  a client that wants read-write mode

    Many thanks to John R. Jackson <jrj@purdue.edu> for the following
    fixes, cleanups, and enhancements...
	- "lost timestamps" bug (SIGALRM/sleep()/usleep()/tcp_wrapper
	  interaction)
	- compiler warnings, bad fileOpenFD tests, and ability to use
	  a colon after an equal in the config file (LOGDIR=C:\Logs)
	- autologin fix for Solaris BSM support

	- ANSI prototypes and definitions (when available)

version 7.1.4 (Jan 21, 2002):
	- console -[PqQ] didn't work - patch by Han Pilmeyer
	  <han@zk3.dec.com>
	- maxfiles() didn't check FD_SETSIZE - patch by Justin Grudzien

    The following suggested by Trevor Fiatal <trevor@seven.com>
	- Widened username field of 'console -w' output
	- Added server hostname to password entry prompt
	- AC_CHECK_LIB replaced with AC_SEARCH_LIBS in configure.in so
	  that irrelevant (and sometimes incompatible) libraries aren't
	  linked in

version 7.1.1 (Aug 4, 2001):
	- Now using getlogin() for real username info - suggested by
	  Dave Stuit <djs@gnac.com>
	- gethostbyname() failure for a console now doesn't cause a
	  shutdown - reported by Todd Stansell <todd@stansell.org>
	- Shutdown via client -q/-Q fixed (broken in 7.1.0 because of
	  master process fork() code)
	- Password file parsing fixed to allow for empty passwords -
	  allowing users to access conserver without a password prompt
	- Both the password and configuration files no longer have
	  line length limitations, they now support comments (`#' lines),
	  and lines with leading whitespace are continuations of
	  previous lines
	- Client hostname/ip sometimes not printed - reported by Todd
	  Stansell <todd@stansell.org>

version 7.1.0 (Jul 26, 2001):
	- Hostname in access list that began with a digit was treated as
	  an IP address - only strings using [0-9./] are considered CIDR
	  notation and they must be of the form a.b.c.d[/n]
	- Fixed SIGHUP always opening logfile(-L) - shouldn't without -d
	- Fixed 'make install' problem under MacOS X and cygwin
	- Client -l option totally broken in 7.0.3 - patch by Daniel E.
	  Singer <des@cs.duke.edu>
	- Client now accepts IP addresses from server and server now sends
	  the IP of the socket instead of its hostname to the client,
	  fixing part of the multi-interface problem
	- Client no longer passes hostname to server along with username
	- Client now turns off IEXTEN so stuff like ^V passes through
	- Server now pauses one second when reopening a TCP-based console
	  to give the terminal server a chance to clean up
	- Master server process now fork()s when accepting clients
	- timestamp-spec can be numeric only ('m' default)
	- Ambiguous console name error now shows ambiguous list
	- Console list in conserver.passwd can now have whitespace
	- Access lists in conserver.cf can now use ',' as a separator

	- Username match (real or '*any*') now stops conserver.passwd file
	  processing - allowing you to lock out users
	- Added -u flag to server to enable "unloved" output - this is the
	  opposite of the old -n flag, which now does nothing
	- Added -7 flag to client and server for stripping the high bit
	  of data on either side (--disable-8bit removed)
	- Added -b to server to specify the base port number for the
	  secondary communication channel - based on code from Enrik
	  Berkhan <Enrik.Berkhan@planb.de>
	- Changed -d and -D flags to -r and -R in client - now -D enables
	  debugging mode in the client (and -d is unused)
	- Changed -r to -G in client so -r could be used for the above
	- Client now uses getpassphrase() (if available) for > 8 char
	  passwords - pointed out by Gregory Bond <gnb@itga.com.au>
	- Improved signal handling
	- Improved process handling (POSIX waitpid() now necessary)
	- Significant rework of STREAMS-based pseudo-tty code
	- TCP connections ('!' config syntax) now have some Telnet protocol
	  knowledge, removing the "noise" seen when connecting to a terminal
	  server - reported by Todd Stansell <todd@stansell.org>
	- Various code and message "pretty-printing" done
	- Client and server both run in Windows (tested with Windows
	  2000) under the cygwin environment thanks to a debug-fest with
	  Emmett Hogan <hogan@gnac.com>
	- Using autoconf version 2.50
	- Man pages reworked and conserver.passwd page created by Dave
	  Stuit <djs@gnac.com> - the pain he suffered documenting
	  the program (and pointing out many of the bugs fixed above)
	  should help endless others

version 7.0.3 (Jul 5, 2001):
	- "Off by 1" bug in 7.0.2 line-oriented timestamp code fixed (extra
	  chars in logfile) reported by Matthew Cheek <cheek@mars-systems.com>
	- TODO file added to distribution
	- 'attached', 'detached', and 'bumped' actions now written to
	  console logs that have 'a' in timestamp-spec field
	- Default timestamp specification with TIMESTAMP= in .cf file
	- Config file much more forgiving about whitespace in fields
	- gethostbyaddr() failures are no longer fatal
	- Added -M to server to specify the address to listen on
	  based on code from Enrik Berkhan <Enrik.Berkhan@planb.de>
	- Added -p option to client and server to specify the port to
	  connect to and listen on (--with-port still sets the default)
	- Added logfile output when going into daemon mode
	    - Added --with-logfile to configure
	    - Added -L to override compile-time logfile location
	    - SIGHUP reopens this logfile as well as previous behavior

	- More #defines for FreeBSD compatibility
	- Using inet_ntoa() now instead of peeking at bytes
	- Fixed up -V (and -Vv) output for client and server

	- Removed ORIGINAL_CODE #if's (old non-CIDR access list parsing)
	- Changed undocumented -p option to -P in console client
	- man pages updated to reflect a little more reality

version 7.0.2 (Jun 15, 2001):
	- Bogus "ambiguous server abbreviation" with distributed server
	  setup fixed
	- Hostname not passed with username from console client
	- Fixed pseudo-terminal ('|' syntax in .cf file) bug with Solaris
	  and other STREAMS-based systems (actually works now in 7.X)
	- Line-oriented timestamps in logfiles (see 'l' mark
	  specification) based on patch from Benn Oshrin
	  <benno@columbia.edu>
	- Generalized debugging output, info messages and error messages
	- Moved library search up in configure.in so function calls are
	  detected properly

	  <fenner@research.att.com>
	- PID file patch by Martin Andrews <mandrews@netgenics.com>

	  and --enable configure arguments
	- ioctl() bug found by Ross Parker <parker@redback.com>

	  version 6.15, you're good to go.

version 6.15 (Mar 6, 2000):
	- Added debug flag (-D) and the beginning of debug output
	- A timeout can now be set for TCP connect() calls.  The
	  default is 30 seconds.  Hosts not responding are only
	  tried once at startup (per child), lessening the impact
	  of a down terminal server.  See CONNECTTIMEOUT in
	  conserver/cons.h.

version 6.14 (Jan 5, 2000):
	- Determining if the local conserver controls a port (with
