1PoPToP ChangeLog 2 3--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4v0.8.13 -> v0.9.0 511th June, 1999 6 7- possibly fixed the 'error 629 on startup' bug. this fix is incompatible 8 with the 'silent' option of pppd, so don't use the 'silent' option. 9- support a single localip with a range of remoteip's 10- new, small, fast, simple get_call_id() function 11- removed a few hardcoded values in ctrlpacket and replaced with defines 12- new pptp_read_header() - slightly more 'expensive' but should be much more 13 robust 14- use openpty() if possible, internalize tty opening, startCall much more 15 simple 16 17--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18v0.8.12 -> v0.8.13 1910th June, 1999 20 21- removed ctrl-manager pipe completely 22- moved awareness of pppd-ip-alloc option to manager only 23- if using pppd-ip-alloc, manager runs more efficiently 24- made pptpctrl able to have a none, one or both of local/remote addresses 25 rather than only both or none 26- great code simplicication 27- re-did IP parser; less potential segfaults from bad config 28- correctly calculate max connections based on number of IP addresses given 29 and statically configured maximum 30- no max connections for the pppd-ip-alloc case 31- properly permit hostnames in IP parser 32- always use fd 0 for network connection 33- fixed -c option 34- note - this version changes the 'run from inetd' options. re-read 35 README.inetd if you use it 36 37--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 38v0.8.11 -> v0.8.12 398th June, 1999 40 41- made autoconf actually check the relevant headers 42- made config.embed.h and removed most #if EMBED in favour of using this 43- fixed some includes and re-arranged things to be a bit cleaner 44- minor cosmetic fixes 45- fixed compilation on StarOS 4 (and hence SunOS 4) 46- documentation on running from ientd 47- removed ctrl-manager pipe by default 48 49--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 50v0.8.10 -> v0.8.11 518th June, 1999 52 53- now only two executables, pptpd and pptpctrl 54- re-did dependency generation 55- minor include cleanups 56 57--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 58v0.8.9 -> v0.8.10 598th June, 1999 60 61- added getopt_long() from GNU libc for use on non-Linux platforms 62- fixed compilation on FreeBSD, Digital Unix and Solaris 63- replaced PPTPD_DEBUG define with configuration option (debug) and 64 command line option (-d/--debug) 65 66--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 67v0.8.8 -> v0.8.9 687th June, 1999 69 70- unified CTRL and GRE processes (removed pptpgre), without the vfork 71 problem since this is not forking 72- changed process name for child processes to pptpd [ip.address.here] 73- moved INTERNAL_IP_ALLOCATION to a configure option (see configure --help) 74- added support for libwrap tcp wrappers 75- made sure pppd doesn't get copies of file descriptors it shouldn't, so 76 it closes down properly 77- lots of other misc fixes 78 79--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 80v0.8.7 -> v0.8.8 814th June, 1999 82 83- increased MAX number of clients to 100 84- layout and comments have been tidied up extensively throughout code 85- new function in ctrlpacket.c for making Control Message headers 86- openBSD fixes 87- many other minor bug fixes 88- some portability issues addressed 89- accept() moved into pptpmanager. 90- pptpmanager closes one side of socketpair server fd and passes client fd 91 other side of socketpair to pptpctrl. 92- pptpmanager main loop changed to select without timeout and made to 93 watch ALL appropriate file descriptors. 94- also made resiliant against some potential error modes, eg, if we are 95 full don't select on new connections descriptor, if accept() fails 96 ignore it cleanly, etc. 97- should be more 'resource friendly' now. 98- Make error state filename instead of just CONFIG FILE: file not found. 99- Limit packet size to PACKET_MAX instead of permitting 4 more if no ACK 100 is bundled (for consistency of packet size limit). 101 102--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 103v0.8.6 -> v0.8.7 1041st June, 1999 105 106- GRE seperated from pptpctrl to support vforking 107- adds link status detection (ie if a link goes down, we can figure it out 108 and deal with it) (Kevin) 109- Solaris/Slirp port (Harald Vogt) 110- cleaned up comments a lot (move towards C style to permit compiling in 111 older compilers/increase portablity) 112- standardized #ifndef #define #endif defines in header files 113- stop inststr from nuking environment (hopefully) 114- use longer argv[0] in exec()s to make inststr much nicer 115- make inststr wipe args other than argv[0] 116- #define to remove some debugging (PPTPD_DEBUG) and to remove the 117 IP address allocation code so PPPD can be used to allocate IP addresses 118 (INTERNAL_IP_ALLOCATION) 119- in pptpctrl.c, main()'s addrlen was uninitialized - yuck, was causing 120 random variable overwriting 121- clean up some wasteful memory copying and so on, as well as remove some 122 copies into small static buffers 123- clean up some blank lines - increasing the amount of code visible one 124 screen is good if it can be done without making the formatting ugly. 125- use exit() not _exit() in pptpd - the fear of this closing fork()d 126 filedescriptors is wrong. both have the same file descriptor closing 127 properties. 128- remove a potential leak of 2 filedescriptors in option parsing (checks 129 of optional file names). 130- miscellaneous EMBED support for syslog etc. 131- many other misc changes. 132 133--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 134v0.8.5 -> v0.8.6 13521st May 1999 136 137- added new ip address reading from config file (for multiple connections) 138 there is a new pptpd configuration file example in samples/ 139- pptpdebug.* is no longer... syslog now handles ALL debugging 140 141--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 142v0.8.4 -> v0.8.5 14318th May 1999 144 145- command line args/config file options are broken (everything hardcoded) 146- many, many, many structural changes for a multiple connection hack 147- multiple connection support 148- reconnect support 149- OpenBSD port (may be broken for this release... Peter?) 150- logging now to syslog DAEMON|DEBUG 151 152--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 153v0.8.3 -> v0.8.4 15413th May 1999 155 156- call_id/peer_id issues addressed in OUT_CALL packets 157- bug in debug log time fixed 158- local added by default to the pppd launcher 159- call_disconnect_notify bug fixed 160- -p command line arg broken 161 162--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 163v0.8.2 -> v0.8.3 16411th May 1999 165 166- a few minor multiple connection hacks.. still nowhere near ready to 167 handle more than one client 168- pptpd -p logfile bug fix 169 170--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 171v0.8.1 -> v0.8.2 17211th May 1999 173 174- Server will no longer die if client disconnects 175- pppd is closed down cleanly now 176- autoconf/automake is back.. but still needs some work 177- a number of minor CTRL establishment bugs fixed 178- callid assignment modified slightly in manager 179 180--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 181v0.8.0 -> v0.8.1 1824th May 1999 183 184- PPTPD no longer relies on a signal (which had the potential to cause 185 a race condition) to know when to launch PPPD/GRE. The CTRL session 186 no longer relies on a signal to return from a fork. Signalling has 187 now been replaced with IPC between PPTPD and CTRL sessions. 188- The GRE/PPPD sessions are now launched *after* an OUT_CALL_RPLY is sent 189 not before it. 190- CTRL and PPTP managers are now seperate from PPTPD 191 192--------------------------------------------------------------------------- 193v0.8.0 19430th April 1999 195 196PoPToP now works with windows 95/98/NT and Linux clients. 197
