ngIRCd is free software and published under the
ngIRCd CVSHEAD
-ngircd 0.8.0-pre2 (2004-05-16)
-
+ - Write "error file" (/tmp/ngircd-XXX.err) only if compiled with debug
+ code ("--enable-debug") and running as daemon process.
+ - Don't create version information string each time a client connects
+ but insetead on server startup. By Florian Westphal.
+ - New configuration variable "PidFile", section "[Global]": if defined,
+ the server writes its process ID (PID) to this file. Default: off.
+ Idea of Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Code cleanups from Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Raised the maximum length of passwords to 20 characters.
+ - Fixed a memory leak when resizing the connection pool and realloc()
+ failed. Now we don't fall back to malloc(), which should be sane anyway.
+ Patch from Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Added support for the Howl (http://www.porchdogsoft.com/products/howl/)
+ Rendezvous API, in addition to the API of Apple (Mac OS X). The available
+ API will be autodetected when you call "./configure --with-rendezvous".
+ - Made ngIRCd compile on HP/UX 10.20 with native HP pre-ANSI C compiler and
+ most probably other older C compilers on other systems.
+ - When the daemon should switch to another user ID (ServerID is defined in
+ the configuration file) and is not running in a chroot environment, it
+ changes it's working directory to the home directory of this user. This
+ should enable the system to write proper core files when not running with
+ root privileges ...
+
+ngIRCd 0.8.3 (2005-02-03)
+
+ - Fixed a bug that could case a root exploit when the daemon is compiled
+ to do IDENT lookups and is logging to syslog. Bug discovered by CoKi,
+ <coki@nosystem.com.ar>, thanks a lot!
+ (http://www.nosystem.com.ar/advisories/advisory-11.txt)
+
+ngIRCd 0.8.2 (2005-01-26)
+
+ - Added doc/SSL.txt to distribution.
+ - Fixed a buffer overflow that could cause the daemon to crash. Bug found
+ by Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Fixed a possible buffer underrun when reading the MOTD file. Thanks
+ to Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Fixed detection of IRC lines which are too long to send. Detected by
+ Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+ - Fixed return values of our own implementation of strlcpy(). The code has
+ been taken from rsync and they fixed it, but we didn't until today :-/
+ It has only been used when the system didn't implement strlcpy by itself,
+ not on "modern" systems. Florian Westphal, <westphal@foo.fh-furtwangen.de>.
+
+ngIRCd 0.8.1 (2004-12-25)
+
+ - Autoconf: Updated config.guess and config.sub
+ - Added some more debug code ...
+ - Fixed wrong variable names in output of "ngircd --configtest".
+ - Debian: Fixed the name of the "default file" in the init script for
+ ngircd-full packages. And do the test if the binary is executable after
+ reading this file.
+ - Enhanced the "test suite": please have a look at src/testsuite/README!
+
+ngIRCd 0.8.0 (2004-06-26)
+
+ - Fixed wrong buffer size calculation for results of the resolver.
+
+ ngircd 0.8.0-pre2 (2004-05-16)
- Enhanced logging to console when running in "no-detached mode": added
PID and log messages of resolver sub-processes.
- Fixed host name lookups when using IDENT user lookups.
- "make clean" and "make maintainer-clean" remove more files now.
-ngIRCd 0.8.0-pre1 (2004-05-07)
-
+ ngIRCd 0.8.0-pre1 (2004-05-07)
- Two new configuration options: "ChrootDir" and "MotdPhrase", thanks to
Benjamin Pineau <ben@zouh.org>. Now you can force the daemon to change
its root and working directory to something "safe". MotdPhrase is used
