WARNING, users of Sparc and HP-PA systems should be carefull, some

Added check for inconv.h in configure script for UNIX98
|
|
character set conversion.
|
|
|
|
common.a:
|
|
The getheader function changed to support stone-age .pkt's.
|
|
If the packet year has a Y2K bug, the year is fixed. This is
|
|
only cosmetic for logging.
|
|
If the zone info is missing, the zone is guessed from 2d aka
|
|
matching against the system aka's. Then all mail in the .pkt
|
|
file is also assumed to be in that zone if there is no zone
|
|
info in the messages also.
|
|
Guess what, these packets do still exist in Fidonet, it took
|
|
5 years to find them! If you want to check, call 5:5/0
|
|
Fixed compiler warning in network code.
|
|
|
|
mbcico:
|

The binkp transmitter does now escape the unsafe filename
|
|
characters.

|
Stone age packet support, see common.a.
|
|
Due to a configuration error in some system using King-FIX
|
|
v.1.26.Universal mbfido did crash.
|
|
Now it will log this and continue processing ticfiles with the
|
|
risk of sending files back to the owner of that faulty program.
|
|
Added the same check for Seenby lines.

|
|
checking and a check for buffer overflow.

|
|
|
mbfido:
|
|
In a scanned netmail destined to our own local UUCP gate the
|
|
useless X-FTN-INTL and X-FTN-TOPT kludges are no longer
|
|
inserted in the message.
|
|

|
|
request, the user is dropped into chatmode in the sysop

v0.37.1 14-Jan-2003 - 23-Feb-2003
|
|
|
|
upgrade:
|
|
After installing the binaries, start mbsetup, enter menu 1 and
|
|
leave that and save it. This will set the default rules

directory, here we will store the area rules of all echomail
|
|
areas.
|
|
After upgrade you may remove ~/etc/maptabs and it's contents.

|
|
carefull and check your logs.
|
|
Spanish templates and macros added to the examples.
|
|
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
|
|

|
Removed the safe cracker door, this is now external.
|
|
|
|
nodelist.a:
|
|
Added experimental support for IP nodes lookup using a default
|
|
domain method. This is not the final implementation yet!
|
|

|
|
discussion in the FTSC. This will also work for current
|
|
practice.
|
|
|
|
common.a:
|
|
Removed charset conversion/translation.
|
|

|
Arcmail for non-CM nodes and Txx nodes is now sent during the
|
|

|
|
each outbound scan and was causing mbtask to stop functioning
|
|
after a few days.
|
|
After forking the daemon, the stdin, stdout and stderr are
|
|
reopend to /dev/null.
|
|
Zero the daily status counters finally works again.
|
|
Added experimental code where tossing mail is not started as
|
|
long as there are mailers running, but not longer as 30 mins.
|
|
This should make the whole system less nervous.
|
|
Modified this code, didn't work, the toss was always started
|
|
at once.
|
|
|
|
mbcico:
|

The nodes statistocs are expanded with flow counters.
|
|
If echomail is accepted in a unsecure area or the unsecure
|
|
commandline option is set, a violation is logged as warning.
|
|
Removed some debugging tests and log messages.
|
|
If a tic file was received in uppercase, during import in the
|
|
bbs the LFN is converted to lowercase.
|
|
Removed a debug logmessage from file forward.
|
|
Promoted some normal debug logmessages to heavy debug messages
|
|

|
|
a sync and one second delay.

|
|
global settings.

When moving a message area to area zero mbsetup doesn't crash
|
|
anymore.
|
|
Added new menu item 319, removed menu items 22 and 23.
|
|
Added setup for rules directory.
|
|
Added setup for menu 221. Changed description of menu 103.
|
|
The menu editor is machine endian independant.
|
|
Removed setup for the safe cracker door.
|
|
In menu 8.3 showing long option data lines, the lines were too
|
|
long for a 80 characters display.

|
|
as from name.
|

Removed timebank and nextuser doors.
|
|
Added editing of user's signature file. New menu item 319.
|
|
If the sysop is exporting a echomail message he will have the
|
|
option to save to his private directory or to the rules
|
|
directory. If saved to the rules directory the message will
|
|
have the filename of the area tag. Normal users can only export
|
|
to their private directory. Sysops: now you can start
|
|
collecting area rules!
|
|
New menu 221, display arearules. This function tries to find
|
|
the arearules in the rules directory and if found displays
|
|
this to the user.
|
|
Fixed whoson list to display user real names and handles again.
|

|
mail reading.
|
|

Finally wrote Delete Message from the menu (menu 206).
|
|

|
|
|
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:
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
