It is also a lot more chatty, and prints very specific messages on error. new: client can be configured with multiple keyserver names. fix: all: no more uneccesary connects when using frequent-checks fix: all: mail sent correctly on shutdown. fix: all: no longer discards work-to-do on fetch. fix: win9x: client no longer hangs on sys shutdown chg: all: smtp/firewall hostname settings have different semantics (port # is appended to the name in the form hostname:port) chg: all: the default keserver port (when port number is zero) for HTTP encoding is 80. The default HTTP proxy port is 8080. fix: all: for 'rotate' log file types: if the interval (limit) is specified in days then the date in the filename reflects the date of the first day of that interval. new: all: by default displays a different crunch-o-meter when an OGR packet is being worked on. (any sug. for improvement?) chg: minor adjustments to Loaded/Saved/Completed/Summary messages for project independance (format doesn't have to be processed differently for different projects). Inexact percentages (ie, for OGR) are no longer displayed at load/save time. new: win16/32: crunch-o-scope, menus et al.

The new option provides better control and supports one new mode "update on per-project buffer exhaustion" which enables old-style single-contest crunching (disables rotation). See also: http://www.distributed.net/faq/cache/176.html new: all: out-buffer thresholds have been removed entirely; use the "additional buffer-level checking" to support updating/flushing more frequently than buffer exhaustion. chg: all: time threshold uses fetch work threshold > 0 as minimum number of workunits to be fetched. new: all: -btime <pn> <n> complements time-driven threshold chg: all: -b[in] <pn> <n> now clears time threshold for <pn>. new: all: exit flagfile filename is now configurable. chg: macos: now supports all variants of System 7 fix: Linux: dynamic import of dns resolution functions for better glibc/libc cross compatibility (one shoe fits all again). fix: winnt: pause on process handling optimized and rewritten. chg: all: checkpointing now done at 10% or 10 minute intervals, instead of 10% with 10 minute minimum. fix: all: project switchover no longer 'hangs'. fix: all: OGR nodecount network packet ordering fixed. fix: all: reported OGR noderate is no longer unacceptably high. fix: all: partially complete OGR stubs are now loaded first. fix: all: will now flush to a proxy/server that is empty. fix: all: setting clock back during network ops could hang. fix: all: block counts during fetching do not fluctuate anymore. fix: fbsd: timezone use for automatic keyserver pick works. chg: many: file system locking on buffers where supported. 2.8007.458 fix: all: the annoying OGR 1 node bug finally fixed new: all: client can be configured a) to restart itself on .ini change; b) (on most platforms) to pause itself as long as process/executable x|y|z|... is running. fix: win32: use NULL DACLs for CreateMutex. chg: macos: numerous minor interface improvements new: macos: multiprocessor support (MP 2.x enhanced) 2.8006.457 fix: BeOS: work not being saved on exit fix: *nix: -config hangs client 2.8006.456 chg: all: OGR cores reactivated. upd: BeOS: x86/ppc clients brought up to date 2.8005.455 fix: all: client not rotating to next project fix: win32/16: all font issues resolved fix: all: fix for cosmetic 'Retrieved n of 4billion' message fix: all: duplicate 'nettimeout' setting in .ini chg: many: CSC cores removed from (some) clients 2.8005.454 fix: all: infinite fetching from 'nowhere'. fix: all: undid that persistant log open change made in .451 2.8005.453 chg: client supports thresholds either as a time-factor, or as a workunit-factor. -config documentation has more info. A review of your settings is *strongly* advised. 2.8004.452 chg: all: .ini option spin off from the generic [parameters] section into subsections is now complete. phew! Nothing left except "id". chg: reverted log file opening on win/dos/netware/os2 to non-shared. 2.8004.451 fix: OS/2: Fixed crash in -config by using different API calls fix: OS/2: included the forgotten CSC-MMX core. fix: win32 Alpha: network connect() fix: all: 2 digit date in log-by-mail fix: solaris x86: multithreading works correctly now (uses native threads bound to LWPs instead of pthreads) chg: log file is opened shared on win/dos/netware/os2 chg: log file is opened with persistant handles on *nix 2.8004.450 new: Mac OS port including Altivec core support (twice as fast as MMX on otherwise comparable hardware) 2.8003.449 chg: win32: client sleeps for 10secs immediately after starting as service to allow the rest of the system to fire up first fix: all: not being able to -update if offlinemode fix: solaris: time stamps/elapsed time on MP boxes fix: all: clients will again reset work if the core # changes (functionality was lost in 2.8002.446 - reset if client version or platform changes was unaffected). 2.8003.448 new: x86: 50% faster CSC MMX core added. '6bit - bitslice' replaces '6bit - called' fix: all: lines in mail/logfile are no longer truncated fix: all: pause by signal (by user) and pause by filename are additive, that is, pause remains in effect as long as either one is in effect. fix: all: completed/summary time is now elapsed wall clock time again fix: x86: Cyrix 6x86 auto-selects CSC core #3 now. imp: all: threads no longer check external flags for shutdown/ pause state. Flags are 'pushed' instead, which reduces cache footprint. fix: win32: win95B doesn't have a 'Lucinda Console' TrueType font, so client avoids it now. chg: many: DES cores are no longer included imp: all: benchmarks have greater time precision (no longer overshoot the end of the bench period) chg: *nix: client setsid()s and dups std handles to /dev/null when started with -quiet/-hide fix: dun config collision with no-networking resolved (dun was still active even if the networking was disabled) 2.8002.447 chg: all: firewall settings in the .ini have moved to the network section. socks user:pass is now saved encoded chg: if appropriate, 'Summary:' now also shows # of work units chg: the cow logo is back, and is now the official mascot of all distributed.net projects :) 2.8002.446 new: all: client is now called 'dnetc' new: all: OGR capability new: all: CSC capability chg: all: more .ini options have been spun off from the generic [parameters] section into subsections chg: all: each project has its own buffer settings (threshold etc) chg: all: cputype option has been phased out in favor of core names/ids and each project can have its own core type chg: all: -benchmark and -benchmark2 can now be limited to a single project, eg '-benchmark csc' to bench only csc new: all: '-bench [project]' benches all cores for a given project (or all projects if no project is specified) new: all: benchmarks are time based now (8-10 secs/16-20 secs) new: win32: distribution includes a native cui wrapper new: win16/32: client saves window size and position chg: win32: service ID is 'dnetc' for client, 'dnetd' for pproxy new: netware: complete rewrite of netware specific code new: *nix: client distribution includes a man page chg: all: auto keyserver name resolution now allows as many retries as there are addresses for a name. rel: Mon, 15 Nov 1999 18:19:51 -0600 http://lists.distributed.net/hypermail/announce/0075.html 2.7100 ------ 2.7112.444 chg: ARM: cores have been partially rewritten. fix: x86: K7 auto selects 'class 6', not 'RISC rotate II' core. fix: x86 DOS: ^C always works now. (is now trapped in a hardware interrupt (irq1) handler rather than in the 'soft' int 23h) imp: win16: scheduling and idle detection has been rewritten new: win16/win32: client archive includes a screen saver. When run some _other_ screen saver in the foreground and start start client in the background. It stops the client when deactivated. new: win32: client will pause itself while it sees defrag running. new: FreeBSD: crunchers are now SMP aware (FBSD 3.0 and greater) "active processor count detection" also works. 2.7110.443 new: win/*nix: support -pause and -unpause (SIGTSTP and SIGCONT respectively). Used like -restart/-shutdown etc. 2.7110.442 new: win32: ioctl-driven network adapter online state detection. primarily for use with non-RAS net devs (heads up! AOL users) includes device masking support ala Linux/FreeBSD new: unix: ps will now see the client as 'rc5des'.
