TCPIP (Arc KA9Q) Version 2.03 (21-Feb-1995)
===========================================
See "New_202" for details of changes since v2.01.
Fixes
=====
NNTP History
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problems: NNTP sometimes lost its history.
Confusion could arise from running multiple feeds
simultaneously.
NNTP History safety net against system failures should mean that ID
history is never lost.
Dropped the global ID history and gone back to separate history files,
but of course keeping new history code and new file format.
CSLIP
~~~~~
Problem: Excessive checksum errors with TCP compress.
There was an odd problem that sometimes resulting in excessive
re-transmitions and corruption of TCP ACK numbers, and so checksum
errors. This seems to have fixed itself since converting BSD CSLIP
code to ANSI-C. (Compiler problem?)
Main symtom of this was very slow outgoing mail, FTP uploads etc.
SMTP
~~~~
Problem: Alias expansion was also filtering valid file names.
Revised user name filter to allow dot separated user names to be written
if directory exists to accomodate the file. Also preserves as many
characters as possible from multi-part names.
