ngIRCd CVS-HEAD
+ - Fixed compilation and test-suite on SunOS (tested with 5.6).
+
+ngIRCd 0.7.0-pre1
+
+ - New signal handler (more secure, actions are executed outside).
+ - GCC: the compiler is now called with more warning options enabled.
+ - Replaced a lot of str[n]cpy(), str[n]cat() and sprintf() calls with the
+ more secure functions strlcpy(), strlcat() and snprintf(). On systems
+ that don't support strlcpy() and strlcat(), these functions are included
+ in the libngportab now (with prototypes in portab.h).
+ - If the server can't close a socket, it panics now. This is an error that
+ can't occur during normal operation so there is something broken.
+ - The order of log messages during disconnects is more "natural" now ;-)
+ - Cleaned up handling of server configuration structures: modifying and
+ removing servers during runtime works more reliable now.
+ - Compression code from "conn.[ch]" is now found in new "conn-zip.[ch]"
+ - Moved some connection functions from "conn.[ch]" to "conn-func.[ch]".
+ - New command CONNECT to enable and add server links. The syntax is not
+ RFC-compatible: use "CONNECT <name> <port>" to enable and connect an
+ configured server and "CONNECT <name> <port> <host> <mypwd> <peerpwd>"
+ to add a new server (ngIRCd tries to connect new servers only once!).
+ - Added DISCONNECT command ("DISCONNECT <name>") to disable servers.
+ - Restructured the documentation: Now the main language is English. The
+ german documentation has been removed (until there is a maintainer).
+ - Enhanced killing of users caused by a nickname collision.
+ - Better error detection for status code ("numerics") forwarding.
+ - Moved tool functions to own library: "libngtool".
+ - New command TRACE (you can trace only servers at the moment).
+ - New command HELP that lists all understood commands.
+ - There should no longer remain "unknown connections" (see e.g. LUSERS)
+ if an outgoing server link can't be established.
+ - Added AC_PREREQ(2.50) to configure.in for better autoconf compatibility.
+ - Conn_Close() now handles recursive calls for the same link correctly.
+ - ngIRCd can register itself with Rendezvous: to enable support pass the
+ new switch "--with-rendezvous" to configure.
+ - Added support for TCP Wrappers library: pass "--with-tcp-wrappers" to
+ configure to enable it.
+ - Changed some configure options to use "--with"/"--without" as prefix
+ instead of "--enable"/"--disable": "--without-syslog", "--without-zlib",
+ "--with-tcp-wrappers", and "--with-rendezvous".
+ - Better error reporting to clients on connect.
+ - Enhanced manual pages ngircd(8) and ngircd.conf(5).
+ - Documentation is now installed in $(datadir)/doc/ngircd.
+ - Enhanced hanling of NJOIN in case of nick collisions.
+
+ngIRCd 0.6.1, 2003-01-21
+
+ - Fixed KILL: you can't crash the server by killing yourself any more,
+ ngIRCd no longer sends a QUIT to other servers after the KILL, and you
+ can kill only valid users now.
+ - The server no longer forwards commands to ordinary users, instead it
+ answers with the correct error message ("no such server") now.
+ - WHOIS commands weren't always forwarded as requested.
+ - The server sets a correct default AWAY message now when propagating
+ between servers (bug introduced in 0.6.0).
+ - Fixed up and enhanced CHANINFO command: channel keys and user limits
+ are synchronized between servers now, too.
+ - MODE returns the key and user limit for channel members correctly now.
+ - Non-members of a channel could crash the server when trying to change
+ its modes or modes of its members.
+ - The server didn't validate weather a target user is a valid channel
+ member when changing his channel user modes which could crash ngIRCd.
+
+
+Older changes (sorry, only available in german language):
+
+ngIRCd 0.6.0, 2002-12-24
+
+ ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre2, 2002-12-23
+ - neuer Numeric 005 ("Features") beim Connect.
+ - LUSERS erweitert: nun wird die maximale Anzahl der lokalen und globalen
+ Clients, die dem Server bzw. im Netzwerk seit dem letzten (Re-)Start
+ dem Server gleichzeitig bekannt waren, angezeigt.
+
+ ngIRCd 0.6.0-pre1, 2002-12-18
- beim Schliessen einer Verbindung zeigt der Server nun vor dem ERROR
noch eine Statistik ueber die empfangene und gesendete Datenmenge an.
- der Server wartet bei einer eingehenden Verbindung nun laenger auf den
