# User Rev Content
1 pcg 1.44 1.9
2 pcg 1.45 - make some dns transport values configurable and document them.
3 pcg 1.48 - interface initialization (mac, mtu) is now done automatically
4     in most configurations.
5     - improved os dependend information in gvpe.osdep(5).
6 pcg 1.45 - new low-level device native/darwin, which supports the tap
7     driver available for darwin (thanks to matthew mead who tested
8 pcg 1.47 it out with me in a long session). tincd/darwin is still available.
9 pcg 1.46 - fixed a bug in relying on the order of global construction
10     when tcp transport was enabled. The fix makes it use no
11     cpu time unless it is in use, too.
12 pcg 1.48 - run if-up/node-up etc. scripts via /bin/sh.
13     - check return value of if-up etc. scripts and exit on failure.
14 pcg 1.44 - skip unparsable config lines instead of stopping parsing and
15     continuing with a surely unusable config.
16 pcg 1.43
17 pcg 1.41 1.8 Fri Mar 18 00:58:55 CET 2005
18 pcg 1.36 - enable-udp = yes is now default only when no other protocols
19     are enabled. otherwise it is disabled unless explicitly enabled.
20 pcg 1.40 - implemented dns tunneling (experimental now and in the future).
21 pcg 1.39 - remove support for pre-release version protocol.
22 pcg 1.41 - updated tincd drivers (rev 1433), added uml_socket driver, documented
23     tincd drivers a bit better.
24 pcg 1.40 - document icmp configuration values.
25     - document transport protocols in gvpe.protocol(7).
26     - remove unused ChangeLog file.
27 pcg 1.41 - created a mailinglist at gvpe@lists.schmorp.de.
28     - added an exemption to allow distribution of binaries linked against
29     OpenSSL, as suggested by Guus Sliepen (author of tinc). No
30     GNUTLS conversion in sight.
31 pcg 1.42 - some portability fixes with respect to --disable-nls.
32 pcg 1.36
33 pcg 1.35 1.7 Tue Feb 22 23:58:59 CET 2005
34 pcg 1.32 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
35 pcg 1.26 - first gnu release.
36 pcg 1.27 - documented the special value 1 for router-priority.
37 pcg 1.26 - renamed vped => gvpe and vpectrl => gvpectrl, as well as
38     vped.conf => gvpe.conf.
39 pcg 1.29 - new per-node option "max-retry".
40 pcg 1.22 - asymmetric rekeying behaviour, so hosts don't rekey simultaneously.
41 pcg 1.24 - new configure option --enable-static-daemon.
42 pcg 1.23 - fix configure --help output.
43 pcg 1.26 - many documentation layout fixes.
44 pcg 1.28 - synced iom.[Ch] from rxvt-unicode.
45 pcg 1.34 - try to cope with some non-monotonic time changes.
46 pcg 1.30 - revert to locale.h - a usual, clocale is nonfunctioning on macosx.
47 pcg 1.32 - considerably improved pod2texi and the resulting texi doc.
48 pcg 1.22
49 pcg 1.21 1.6.1 Wed May 12 14:48:20 CEST 2004
50 pcg 1.32 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
51 pcg 1.22 - fix -c switch that has been broken due to a last-minute fix
52     to option and config file parsing.
53 pcg 1.21
54 pcg 1.20 1.6 Mon May 10 20:55:10 CEST 2004
55 pcg 1.22 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
56     - do not RESET on out-of-sequence packets (good for wireless).
57     - various non-security-related bugfixes.
58     - c++ify (at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should make
59     it a little bit more standard c++).
60 pcg 1.19
61 pcg 1.18 1.5 Fri Jan 30 00:50:04 CET 2004
62 pcg 1.22 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
63     - vped will refuse to start when hostkey and public key do not match.
64     - updated lzf code to version 1.2.
65     - better error reporting for "unusual" conditions, like failing
66     to allocate memory, that should not normally happen and
67     will otherwise result in spurious other error messages. Also
68     adds paranoid checks in case openssl's API changes in a bad way.
69     - fix a bug where queued vpn packets were cleared to zero. while
70     this doesn't affect security, it did cause warning messages and
71     unnecessary connectivity delays.
72 pcg 1.15
73 pcg 1.13 1.4 Sat Jan 17 15:49:21 CET 2004
74 pcg 1.22 - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases.
75     - better retry behaviour on key mismatch.
76     - use select-based io_manager instead of poll-based one.
77     - share io manager between rxvt-unicode and vpe.
78     - sooo many *BSD workarounds because no BSD I could find is even
79     remotely POSIX-compatible.
80 pcg 1.11
81 pcg 1.10 1.2 Fri Oct 17 03:44:44 CEST 2003
82 pcg 1.22 - protocol version 0.1.
83     - tincd kernel interface code imported, more supported platforms
84     (native/linux (2.4), tincd/linux (2.2 and 2.4), tincd/freebsd,
85     native/cygwin).
86     - added primitive ethernet emulation (ipv4 only), which allows
87     the following platforms that only have tun drivers to work:
88     /* none yet tested */
89     - portability workarounds, especially for unfriendly freebsd
90     - very minor bugfixes
91     - warnings when choosing insecure ciphers/hashes
92     - reduced default hmac length to 8.
93     - cvs now contains configure, Makefile.in and other generated files.
94     - added doc/complex-example to the distribution.
95    
96     1.0 distant past
97     - protocol version 0.1.
98     - tweaked various timeouts to help very slow (486) class
99     machines or nets with many hosts.
100     - tweaked rate-limiting to be more forgiving for hosts
101     connecting through routers (not a fix).
