- This is a list of fixes to BETA 18 with VR15 applied from lundberg@vr.net
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- WU-FTPD 2.4.2 FINAL RELEASE, FEBRUARY 26, 1999
-
- If you missed it, it's because Stan Barber never announced it publicly.
-
- These changes represent the differences from WU-FTPD-2.4.2-BETA-18 to the
- released version, WU-FTPD-2.4.2.
-
- This is the first release of WU-FTPD 2.4.2 with VR upgrades. Two patch
- files are available for this VR update.
-
- - wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr16.patch
- Contains all differences between 2.4.2 and 2.4.2-VR16.
-
- - wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18-vr16.patch
- Contains the differences from 2.4.2-beta-18-vr15 to 2.4.2-vr16; this is
- available in the attic at ftp.vr.net to document the actual changes for
- this release.
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- TODO list renumbered to match Stan's 2.4.2 TODO list.
-
- Documentation of unexpected behavior: upload no allowed directory creation.
- doc/examples/ftpaccess.heavy update as an example of this behavior.
- I believe this is NOT true for the VR versions, but have not tested as yet.
-
- Documentation clarification for ftphosts, ftp or anonymous listed in the
- file will disable anonymous ftp access.
-
- Possible pointer overrun in acl.c parsing ftpaccess corrected.
-
- Literal constant in ftpcmd.y changed to static to reduce program size.
-
- ftpcount/ftpwho interpretation of start/stop times made to match the way
- the daemon actually does it.
-
- setproctitle() in ftpd.c updated to avoid a buffer overrun and handle low
- memory conditions; SCO corrections.
-
- Possible buffer overrun parsing 'virtual root' and 'virtual logfile'
- corrected.
-
- A timeout timer was being reset at the wrong point during STOR.
-
- Corrections for Sun/Solaris paths in pathnames.h
-
- Makefile for DEC/Unix (dec and du4) changed from cc -std1 to cc -std.
-
- Correction in syslog support for DEC/Unix in support/syslog.c.
-
- util/xferstats corrected to parse your local domain name rather than just
- assuming you're academ.com.
-
- Other changes are white-noise or simply for style and do not effect the
- operation of the daemon in any way.
-
-
-
- VR-specific changes
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Reviewing the changes, I noted the makefile for hiu had a typo and would
- not install two manpages. No other changes from VR15 were made.
