Not much has changed since 7.2.0-beta3 (a good thing, really) but a heck of a lot has changed since 7.1.4. I highly suggest folks upgrade - the ability to send a HUP and reconfigure conserver without kicking off all your clients can be a great asset (according to my inner-circle of friends who are also users/testers). Here's the complete list of changes since 7.1.4. I hope everyone enjoys new the features. version 7.2.0 (Mar 12, 2002): - check for valid baud rates (invalid resulted in '0') - reported by Andrew Gallatin - a broadcast messages to others on your console can now be sent via ^Ecb version 7.2.0-beta3 (Feb 25, 2002): - allow for 57600 and 115200 baud rates - patch by Andreas Wrede - TCP traffic now escaped according to Telnet protocol - the highly desired dynamic reconfiguration of conserver is here! the HUP signal now triggers a read of the configuration file and adjustment of consoles - configure flags shown in -V output version 7.2.0-beta2 (Feb 14, 2002): - new -W client option for showing who's attached to a single conserver master - suggested by Dave Stuit - maxfiles() clashes with HP-UX 11 'maxfiles' variable - patch by Adam Morris - removed use of socklen_t type for better compatibility - removed TELCMD/TELOPT use for compatibility version 7.2.0-beta1 (Jan 29, 2002): - static structures and strings are now dynamic in server - MAXGRP (--with-maxgrp) has been removed as it's now dynamic - new -m server option for setting the maximum consoles per process - the default is still set with --with-maxmemb - new -i client option (and ^Eci) that displays console information in a machine-parseable format - two debug levels (second level by using two -D options) - ANSI prototypes and definitions (when available) Bryan Stansell From bryan@stansell.org Mon Mar 25 18:12:38 2002 Received: from underdog.stansell.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by underdog.stansell.org (8.12.2/8.12.2) with ESMTP id g2Q2Cc2S023002; Mon, 25 Mar 2002 18:12:38 -0800 (PST) Received: (from bryan@localhost) by underdog.stansell.org (8.12.2/8.12.2/Submit) id g2Q2CcRB023001; Mon, 25 Mar 2002 18:12:38 -0800 (PST) Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2002 18:12:38 -0800 From: Bryan Stansell To: announce@conserver.com, users@conserver.com Subject: conserver 7.2.1 is available Message-ID: <20020325181238.U11306@underdog.stansell.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: announce-admin@conserver.com Errors-To: announce-admin@conserver.com X-BeenThere: announce@conserver.com X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.8 Precedence: bulk List-Help: List-Post: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: Conserver Announcements List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Here's the latest version of conserver.
