|
|

|
|

10 | 2.01 Thu Mar 29 19:26:04 CEST 2007 |
|
|
11 | - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. |
|
|
12 | - bugfix of callback.h, might have cause callback return values to |
|
|
13 | be corrupted on architectures like sparc before. |
|
|
14 | - dns transport retries more aggressively. |
|
|
15 | - updated documentation, improved dns transport reliability |
|
|
16 | and throughput. |
|
|
17 | - added experimental support for sha256 and sha512 digests. |
|
|

|
|
19 | 2.0 Mon Dec 5 13:59:26 CET 2005 |
|
|
20 | - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. |
|
|
21 | - implement allow-direct, deny-direct node config statements. |
|
|
22 | - implemented != for sockinfo. This fixes a bug where |
|
|
23 | gvpe sent packets to the old ip address of another host |
|
|
24 | even though it had received packets from it's new address. |
|
|
25 | This only causes problems if you forget to -HUP your gvpe after |
|
|
26 | your ip address changed, which is *required*. |
|
|
27 | - sets close-on-exec flag on tcp connections. This fixes a bug |
|
|
28 | where child processes kept tcp connections open and caused |
|
|
29 | connections to fail when only one side can connect. |
|
|
30 | - fixed a bug in receive sequence checking that made gvpe |
|
|
31 | accept out-of-window packets in most cases. |
|
|
32 | - tighter limit for the maximum sequence # to avoid overflow |
|
|
33 | conditions + allow more headroom for packet reordering. |
|
|
34 | - replace some asserts that trapped config mismatches by |
|
|
35 | more useful log messages. |
|
|
36 | - fix spurious extra newline in some log messages. |
|
|

|
38 | 1.9 Tue Apr 19 06:21:50 CEST 2005 |
|
|
39 | - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. |
|
|
40 | - WARNING: this version checks the return value of if-up etc. |
|
|
41 | scripts and exits on failure. |
|
|
42 | - IMPORTANT: run if-up/node-up etc. scripts via /bin/sh. |
|
|
43 | - IMPORTANT: interface initialization (MAC, MTU) is now done |
|
|
44 | automatically in most configurations. |
|
|
45 | - options can now be specified on the gvpe command line, too. |
|
|
46 | - make some DNS transport values configurable and document them. |
|
|
47 | - improved OS specific information in gvpe.osdep(5). |
|
|
48 | - new tap device type "native/darwin", that supports the tap |
|
|
49 | driver available for darwin (thanks to matthew mead who tested |
|
|
50 | it out with me in a long session). tincd/darwin is still available. |
|
|
51 | - new device type "tincd/bsd", which is a newer version of the |
|
|
52 | *bsd-drivers taken from tinc. |
|
|
53 | - fixed a bug in relying on the order of global construction |
|
|
54 | when tcp transport was enabled. The fix makes it use no |
|
|
55 | cpu time unless it is in use, too. |
|
|
56 | - information about other nodes is now available to if-up etc. scripts. |
|
|
57 | - the value of the config variable if-up-data is passed to the if-up |
|
|
58 | etc. scripts. |
|
|
59 | - skip unparsable config lines with a warning instead of stopping |
|
|
60 | parsing and continuing with a certainly unusable config. |
|
|
61 | |
|
|
62 | 1.8 Fri Mar 18 00:58:55 CET 2005 |
|
|
63 | - protocol version 0.1, compatible with older releases. |
|
|
64 | - enable-udp = yes is now default only when no other protocols |
|
|
65 | are enabled. otherwise it is disabled unless explicitly enabled. |
|
|
66 | - implemented dns tunneling (experimental now and in the future). |
|
|
67 | - remove support for pre-release version protocol. |
|
|
68 | - updated tincd drivers (rev 1433), added uml_socket driver, documented |
|
|
69 | tincd drivers a bit better. |
|
|
70 | - document icmp configuration values. |
|
|
71 | - document transport protocols in gvpe.protocol(7). |
|
|
72 | - remove unused ChangeLog file. |
|
|
73 | - created a mailinglist at gvpe@lists.schmorp.de. |
|
|
74 | - added an exemption to allow distribution of binaries linked against |
|
|
75 | OpenSSL, as suggested by Guus Sliepen (author of tinc). No |
|
|
76 | GNUTLS conversion in sight. |
|
|
77 | - some portability fixes with respect to --disable-nls. |
|
|
78 | |
|
|
79 | 1.7 Tue Feb 22 23:58:59 CET 2005 |

|
|
83 | - renamed vped => gvpe and vpectrl => gvpectrl, as well as |
|
|
84 | vped.conf => gvpe.conf. |
|
|
85 | - new per-node option "max-retry". |
|
|
86 | - asymmetric rekeying behaviour, so hosts don't rekey simultaneously. |
|
|
87 | - new configure option --enable-static-daemon. |
|
|
88 | - fix configure --help output. |
|
|
89 | - many documentation layout fixes. |
|
|
90 | - synced iom.[Ch] from rxvt-unicode. |
|
|
91 | - try to cope with some non-monotonic time changes. |
|
|
92 | - revert to locale.h - a usual, clocale is nonfunctioning on macosx. |
|
|
93 | - considerably improved pod2texi and the resulting texi doc. |

102 | - do not RESET on out-of-sequence packets (good for wireless). |
|
|
103 | - various non-security-related bugfixes. |
|
|
104 | - c++ify (at least make it compile with g++-3.4, which should make |
|
|
105 | it a little bit more standard c++). |
|
|
106 | |
|
|
107 | 1.5 Fri Jan 30 00:50:04 CET 2004 |

109 | - vped will refuse to start when hostkey and public key do not match. |
|
|
110 | - updated lzf code to version 1.2. |
|
|
111 | - better error reporting for "unusual" conditions, like failing |
|
|
112 | to allocate memory, that should not normally happen and |
|
|
113 | will otherwise result in spurious other error messages. Also |
|
|
114 | adds paranoid checks in case openssl's API changes in a bad way. |
| 9 | - fix a bug where queued vpn packets were cleared to zero. while |
