v0.37.9 17-Sep-2003
mbsebbs:
Made menus work on non-intel platforms.
mbsetup:
Made menus editor work on non-intel platforms.
script:
Fixed debian init script to allow it to run over the network.
examples:
Updated Spaning and English chat menu to use the internal
chatserver.
v0.37.8 14-Sep-2003 - 17-Sep-2003
general:
This version is issued to prepare for a stable release.
common.a:
Added a set of general purpose timers.
mbcico:
Session handshake and EMSI handshake use the general purpose
timers instead of the ttyio timers. This should prevent invalid
timeouts during zmodem transfers. (bug since 0.37.6).
Compiled IEMSI code back in, starts mblogin which is not IEMSI
ready yet.
v0.37.7 09-Sep-2003 - 14-09-2003
v0.38.0 26-Dec-2002 - 03-Oct-2003
upgrade:
Note: if upgrading from a 0.37.8 or 0.37.9 development version,
then no upgrade procedure is needed. All others read the next
carefully!
A bit tricky to upgrade and start using the new debug logfile,
follow the next steps exactly!!
1. Download and install the source

doesn't work (you get socket errors), it is important that you
kill mbtask during software versions swap. All software must
be of the same build.
Check settings menu 1.5.21 for maximum allowed logins.
Check setting of menu 1.14.15.
Remove ~/etc/archiver.data, start mbsetup menu 3, leave and
save. This updates the archiver view contents commands.
After upgrade you may remove ~/etc/maptabs and it's contents.
After upgrade you may remove ~/etc/bank.data.
After upgrade you may remove ~/etc/safe.data.
If you want, download and install the nu-door and safe-door
packages.
In mbsetup 1.17.3 check if you have the XX,CM,IBN,IFC flags,
which indicates your TCP/IP capabilities. This is only for
systems that use TCP/IP, dialup systems should only have
the XX,CM flags. Important: only protocols that you place
in this entry are supported, so XX,CM,IBN will let your system
only call binkp nodes.
general:
The nodelist lookup functions are now in a separate library.
This will give us easy implemtation of new nodelist formats
and flags.
Introduced a new file, ~/etc/nodelist.conf, this file will
be used for nodelist lookup behaviour.
The current looked-up nodelist strcuture has an extra field,
the URL how that node must be contacted.
Debug logging is now in a separate file, the normal logging is
now only in the normal logfiles.
msgbase.a:
Moved messages link from mbmsg program into library.
mbcico:
Fixed MB state error from the previous version.
Rewrote another part of the binkp driver, initializing the
options.
If doesn't do Multiple Batch mode anymore against binkp/1.1
mailers.
File resync during receive finally works.
In binkp we don't send a empty dataframe after a file anymore.
mbtask:
Added support for debug logfile. Dropped the debug switch for
mbtask logging, this is now allways on.
mbsetup:
Added support for debug logging in menu 1.3 and removed the
mbtask debug switch from menu 18.
Import and purge oneliners now log what is done.
mbmsg:
Moved message linking to msgbase library.
mbsebbs:
When a message is saved, the messages in that area are linked.
mbfido:
When mails are scanned for export via ftn and one of the from,
to or subject lines are too long, the export is cancelled.
v0.37.6 10-Aug-2003 - 09-Sep-2003
general:
Changed all Linux references into GNU/Linux.
Changed the address of the FSF in all sources.
Removed memwatch debugger.

Added a setup switch for the nodes for selecting the wrong
binkp long filenames escape method for Argus and Irex nodes.
Activated the productcode for mbse that is published in the
ftscprod.007
ftscprod.007, MBSE now has an official product code.
Changed the website address in several sources.
libmsgbase.a:
Resolved a buffer overflow problem with kludges larger then
512 bytes.
nodelist.a:
Removed some of the debug logging.
mbcico:
Completly changed the files inbound receive, all files are now
first stored in a unique per node temporary inbound directory.
Only after a successfull session all received files are moved
to the final inbound directory. Hopefully this will solve the
resync problems.
The other goodie is that this is more safe on busy multiline
systems.
Fixed the binkp escape sequence which is wrong in the FSP, this
is selectable in the nodes setup.
A light improvement in session handshake setup timers.
Added EMSI handshake timers, this gives a more relaxed EMSI
handshake.
Set the EMSI receive failure count to 20 instead of 6, we can
now even accept buggy maindoor sessions and still display a
banner.
For FTS-0001 sessions the mail password was used instead of the
session password. Also improved the password check.
The product code was not entered in the FTS-0001 packet headers.
The binkp driver now always reports 1.0 again.
Revised some state tables in the binkp session setup stage.
Fixed a possible buffer overflow in the binkp driver.
Fixed aborting binkp session when the remote sent a empty CRAM
password for unprotected session.
mbfido:
The rfc to ftn gate now drops the headerlines starting with
X-Spam- because they are only filled with advertisents and are
very large (upto 1200 bytes which is somewhat larger for a
fidonet kludge).
mbsetup:
In the nodes setup a switch is added to fallback to the wrong
binkp escape method.

upgrade:
Check settings menu 1.5.21 for maximum allowed logins.

presence by running mbmon. The mbchat program is obsolete.
Menu item 22 is added, this is user chat session.
For chat (and sysop/user paging chat) works now using the
mbtask daemon.
In several messages handling functions the international
charset translations are removed because of several bugs. They
will be replaced by standard library functions. Right now the
messages are 8 bit clean and there is no translation on the
gateway. The maptabs are removed.
Menu items 22 and 23 are removed, menu 319 is added. You may
want to replace the default txtfiles and menus, upgraded
versions are in the distribution but are not automatic
installed.
Documented menu 318, was present for a long time, just not in
the html docs.
The main Makefile now sets each txtfiles directory to mode 775
to allow doors to write ansi/ascii screens.
Removed the safe cracker door, this is now external.
A new developer/translator joined the team, David Gonzalez.
The settings to suppres some IP protocols (global and nodes)
are removed, this behaviour must be set using nodelist flags
configuration.
Debug logging for mail and news now have one setting, the M.
Nodelist debug logging now uses the N character.
In some makefiles the chown user.group syntax changed to
user:group to follow the new POSIX syntax. Please let me know
if you are using an older distribution that complains about
this. This was needed for FreeBSD 4.7.

v0.37.00 26-Dec-2002 - 14-Jan-2003
upgrade:
In mbsetup 1.17.3 check if you have the XX,CM,IBN,IFC flags,
which indicates your TCP/IP capabilities. This is only for
systems that use TCP/IP, dialup systems should only have
the XX,CM flags. Important: only protocols that you place
in this entry are supported, so XX,CM,IBN will let your system
only call binkp nodes.
general:
A new developer/translator joined the team, David Gonzalez.
The settings to suppres some IP protocols (global and nodes)
are removed, this behaviour must be set using nodelist flags
configuration.
Debug logging for mail and news now have one setting, the M.
Nodelist debug logging now uses the N character.
In some makefiles the chown user.group syntax changed to
user:group to follow the new POSIX syntax. Please let me know
if you are using an older distribution that complains about
this. This was needed for FreeBSD 4.7.
Added Dutch template macro files. Updated English and German
template macro files. Please remove old ones before installing.
libs:
The nodelist lookup functions are now in a separate library.
This will give us easy implemtation of new nodelist formats
and flags.
Introduced a new file, ~/etc/nodelist.conf, this file will
be used for nodelist lookup behaviour.
The current looked-up nodelist strcuture has an extra field,
the URL how that node must be contacted.
mbcico:
With binkp and EMSI sessions double received remote aka's are
filtered.
When calling ITN nodes, the default port is now 23.
Call setup changed and uses now the nodelist lookup URL.
Changed raw ifcico debug logging.
mbout:
When a poll was removed, the outbound was not rescanned.
examples:
Prepared for more example translations.
Added German template files made by Joachim Kuwan.
script:
Fixed debian init script to allow it to run over the network
by using kill `pidof mbtask` to kill the daemon.
Added full path to pidof command in FreeBSD init script.
Added new init script for FreeBSD.
mbfile:
Move old files to another area failed, only the symbolic link
was moved.
Prepared for multilanguage html pages creation.
mbfido:
Echomail from other zones showed the address of your own zone.
Added logging when other errors are found.
At zonegates, the seenby lines were twice stripped.
Another patch to compensate for sysops that pack pascalnet
files in fidonet packets and send these messages into the world
without zone information.
Made the incoming tic files complete case insensitive, mixed
case is now processed. If such file is received, the LFN will
be set to that name.
The magic unpack command now uses the mail unpack command
instead of file unpack command so that paths in the archive are
junked.
mbsebbs:
Changed to use the new nodelist lookup methods.
mbsetup:
Removed global flags No-IBN, IFC and ITN from the setup.
Removed nodes flags No-IBN, IFC and ITN from the setup.
