- FIXES in 2.4.2-BETA-13
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Tickets 23 from <jbf@schubert.telepac.pt> and 96 from
- <torben.leifsen@astro.uio.no> reported a problem with compliing wu-ftpd on
- OSF. This is due to an failure in the software to include the correct
- include file. This is fixed in this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 157 from Albert Lunde <Albert-Lunde@nwu.edu> pointed out an
- inconsistency in the forward definition of realpath when a STDC compiler is
- used. This is now fixed.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 161 from ianw@sco.com, ticket 168 from lamont@security.hp.com and
- ticket 220 from sr@inri.com all pointed out a problem in the code I
- put into popen.c to attempt to address an overflow problem. Too much late
- night coding for me:-). Anyway, a version of their suggested fix is in
- this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 162 and 222 from michael@ra.TSS.PeachNet.EDU and ianw@sco.COM,
- respectively, pointed out that there was an extra %s in one of the
- reply strings. This is now fixed
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 168 from lamont@security.hp.com suggested that sysconf be used to
- get the number of fds. This has been added to popen.c and a change has been
- made to config.hpx to use that. I have also tried to add this to other
- configurations that are documented (or are known) to support sysconf.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 180 from David Pesticcio <davidp@cableol.net> pointed out some problems
- with the INSTALL file. There was a missing step and other problems. These have
- been fixed for this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 182 from <ache@nagual.ru> supplied some fixes to skey support. The
- patches supplied were used as a basis for those fixed included in this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 183 from <ache@nagual.ru> supplied a patch to removed \r\n from any
- string put in setproctitle. This changes are includes in this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 184 from <ache@nagual.ru> supplied a patch to enforce FreeBSD (when
- this software is built on FreeBSD) concerning the logging of numeric addresses
- when DNS name is larger than UT_HOSTSIZE field.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 185 from <ache@nagual.ru> suggested that we should removed all
- references to LOG_TOOMANY, since it is no longer being actually implemented.
- We agree.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 186 from <ache@nagual.ru> said that FreeBSD already had the fnmatch
- function in its C library and didn't need the version in the support library.
- The support library will now be built without this.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 191 from Ian Willis <ianw@sco.COM> suggests that the failsafe number of
- fds in popen.c should be bigger than sizeof(long). He suggested 20, but I am
- setting it to 31. We'll see if that helps folks have fewer signal 10 or 11
- errors that are unexplained.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 193 from <ache@nagual.ru> pointed out that ftpcount.c does not
- include stdlib.h, which will cause malloc to allocate too little space to
- hold st_size on FreeBSD. This is now fixed.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 197 from Ian Willis <ianw@sco.COM> provides some additional patches
- for SCO OpenServer 5. These are included in this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 216 from Alain Magloire <alain.magloire@rcsm.ee.mcgill.ca> provides
- some bounds checking ftpd when building the directory command to send to
- the operating system. His changes may not be portable to all platforms, since
- the use snprintf, but we'll give it a try.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ticket 220 from sr@inri.com showd some coding problems in access.c when
- determining host access information. This fix is included in this release.
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- In researching other problems, I noticed that setproctitle was not being
- called correctly in a couple of placed in ftpd.c. There were not enough
- arguments. This is now fixed.
