But there were too - many problems that a stable release wasn't a good idea. - - general: - Due to lack of maintainers italian language support is dropped. - Upgraded to ftscprod.010 - Added port to OpenBSD, is under test (and doesn't work yet). - Code cleanup so that compile stops on unknown OSes and CPUs - instead of missing code parts. - Added Unix codepage KOI8-R (Russian) and patches from Dmitry - Komissaroff. - Updated Copyright notices to 2004 to 2005. - From filetranfer records removed the batch and bidirectional - switches, these are no longer needed. - Added new subdirectory mbutils. Some sources from the mbsebbs - subdirectory are moved there. - Changed the CFLAGS back from -O3 to -O2 since there seem some - stablity problems and I want to rule out the possibility that - this is caused by bad gcc optimisation. - - upgrade: - In mbsetup menu 8.2 remove the Italian language. - In /opt/mbse "rm -rf italian". - In /opt/mbse/etc "rm italian.lang". - Or keep it, but you need to take care of updating this language - yourself. - Check mbsetup 7.n.3.14 and 7.n.3.15 settings. - You may limit the mailhistory.html size by setting 1.15.8 - Check mbsetup 1.13.4 and 1.13.5, they should be empty or point - to valid and readable logfiles. If set then ftp and or www - downloads are counted as valid downloads. - Enter setup menu 8.4 once and leave to clear unused data. - Start mbsetup, in screen 1.2 item 10, add your real internet - name or IP there. This MUST be the name that is returned when - you do a nslookup on your external IP address. - Add the following line to /etc/services: - fido 60179/udp # chatserver - Make sure you remove everything related to bbslist menus from - your menus and txtfiles. - Start mbsetup and leave. - You might want to check menu 8.5, file transfer protocols since - we now have internal protocols. - - nodelist.a: - Clear node Hold or Down status if set in nodes setup. - - mbselib.a: - Removed some debug logging. - Added a function to clean subject lines from garbage, trailing - spaces etc. to improve message linking. - Added code for Internet BBS Chat. - - msgbase.a: - Fixed JAM pack function, the lastread pointers could be wrong - if the last messages of an area were deleted. - - libdiesel.a: - Changed the maximum string length from 2560 to 4096 characters. - - libmbinet.a: - Fixed error messages when the host to connect to has a DNS - error. - - charset: - Changed rfc-2045 name x-mac to mac. Changed x-ibmpc to cp437. - This allows rfc mime headers to show official names. - Added some basic things to support Chinese. - - mbcico: - Added support for binkp GZ and BZ2 compression. Can be turned - off per node. To use it configure with --enable-experiment. - Record previous session state so we can better react on failed - sessions. - Added detection of remote options NR, ND and NDA to prepare - for implementation. - Rewrote inbound handling for binkp sessions so that recovery - from failed sessions works, even with compressed transfers. - Fixed crash on received m_get command. - Increased binkp timeout from 180 to 300 seconds. - Added protection during binkp receive for zero bytes compressed - data frames, this will cause uncompress error -5 because zero - bytes can't be compressed at all. - Fixed test for valid aka's in the EMSI handshake that prevented - that host aka's (node /0) were not presented to the remote. - (thanks Przemyslaw Kwiatkowski). - Removed binkp extra debug logging and some standard debug logging. - Added auto workaround for Internet Rex 2.24 upto 2.29 binkp bug. - However, it is still wise to set the "No binkp/1.1" setting in - the node setup if you have a record for such node. - - mbout: - Code cleanup. - - mbfido: - If some newsarticles are not accepted for post, don't treat - this as fatal and clear the sendqueue. - Removed soft-cr filter during message import. - Code cleanup. - Added debug logging in rfc2ftn to track a rare problem. - Added error logmessage in case *.msg path isn't defined. - Fixed a segfault when echomail.jam or netmail.jam is corrupted - when scanning for outgoing mail. - Fixed fido style from address for posting news. - Reinstalled charset translation on the gateway. Changed the - way how FTN kludges are translated to RFC headers. - Dropped support for newsgroup distribution. - In tic processing changed pointer type for seenby lists. - Fixed running out of file descriptors when there are lots of - bad mailpackets. - Fixed commandline parser for mail recipients. - Added subject line clean in several places. - When message areas are autocreated, golded.inc and msg.txt are - recreated for the external editors. - The web stats can now limit the size of mailhistory.html - The FileMgr command connects news nodes SR if set for the tic - area. - Empty *.msg netmails for our own system are dropped with and - logged (just like received empty netmails). Empty netmails to - remote systems are still stored in the netmail base. - Added debug logging for exporting netmails from the messagebase - so that we later can decide to mark these messages auto deleted. - In rfc2ftn a debug logmessage added to check for unrecognised - message ids. - With html create the general strings are now converted to html - entinities. - - mbnntp: - Removed some debug logging. - Added leading zeros for generated msgid's. - Improved charset detection. - Does now send the right mime headers recognised by news clients. - Fixed compile problem with some compilers. - When sending the mime header with the charset used to the news - client, the original message charset is tried first, else the - area charset, else the users charset and if all failed, we send - the us-ascci charset as default. - More patches added from Dmitry Komissaroff to improve charset - support. Also improved msgid linking. - Removed dead timercode. - Code cleanup. - When a message is posted without RFC Messageid, a fidonet MSGID - is fresh created. - Changed X-JAM kludges to X-FTN kludges to make it compatible - with the rest of the gates. - Patches from Dmitry Komissaroff to make charset translation - work on message subject lines. It will now also send the right - charset for the user in the charset header line so that the - client will show the message in the users charset. - - mbfile: - Code cleanup. - With the index command only changed areas are indexed. This - removes the feature request for a switch per area from the - TODO list because this solution works better and much faster. - Dropped support for areas on CDrom. - The adopt command now first checks if the filename is 8.3 or a - long filename and the correct format for import is then set. - With mbfile import, download counters in files.bbs are skipped. - When the file description was missing in files.bbs with the - import command, mbfile would crash. Now a dummy description is - inserted. - The directory from which the import is done is first tested for - write access, if forbidden then no import is done. This also - means you cannot import directly from CD's but that you need - to copy the CD contents first to a harddisk. - Better error reporting if something is wrong. - The import command now also figures out the difference between - 8.3 and long filenames and does the right thing during import. - During file import the destination is tested for both 8.3 and - LFN for an existing file. Improved error reporting. - With mbfile import the original file isn't renamed anymore. - Fixed error reporting when files in files.bbs were not found - on disk. - In mbfile check added a check for the filemode of the real file - in the download area, if it's not 0644 it will be corrected. - With adopt, import and move allow to overwrite a file with the - same name if the -f option is used on the commandline. - - mbsebbs: - Code cleanup. - Changed syntax for calling mbpasswd. - Blocked sysop to chat and page the sysop.

It's more - troubles to implement right then it's worth these days. This - is caused by telnet connections when we never know what the - real linespeed is with to/from the user. - Added the following internal file transfer protocols: Xmodem, - Ymodem, Ymodem-1K, Ymodem-G, Zmodem and Zmodem-8K (aka ZedZap). - Xmodem should not be used, but is available because Ymodem is - available, ie: don't make it available for your users. - For more information see the manual setup/protocol.html. - After upload, files are now stored correctly in the filebase. - In change protocol, changed the colors. - With user chat, the timeout timer wasn't refreshed. - Improved test for users protocol available. - Fixed download K and files setting for users on a new day. - - mbnewusr: - Changed syntax for calling mbpasswd. - If we can detect the users screenlength then we don't bother - asking the user. - Added logging during execute of mbuseradd. - Corrected wrong ANSI setting for new users. - Added logging of remote host and terminal. - If the external editor is configured a new user gets the - external editor by default instead of the internal editor. - During hangup we set sighup to ignore. - Fixed keyboad input for all bigendian machines. - Rewrote terminal i/o. - - mbsetup: - Removed Italian default record.

Special thanks to + Alan Ianson and Robert Wolfe for testing the 64 bit versions. + Added escaping in client/server comms. It is now allowed to + use comma's in user names, locations etc. + + upgrade: + The bbs menu Change Screenlength is obsolete. Remove this from + the menus (setup.mnu) and ascii/ansi screens (setup.a??). + Owners of 64 bits systems should check if all *.sts files in + the outbound are 12 bytes log.

Then start the bbs again. + Owners of 64 bit systems that have run version 0.80.0 or older + should really backup everything and be prepared that all data + files are not compatible anymore. Blame the GNU people for + changing the storage format for some variables. + After upgrade databases are compatible between 32 and 64 bit + systems. + + libmbse.a: + Added clencode and cldecode to safe escape messages to mbtask. + In nodelock show program name if node is already locked. + + mbcico: + Made binkp GZ and BZ2 compression final. + Fixed compile errors when both zlib and bzlib development + packages are not installed on some distro's. + + mbfido: + Fixed a segfault when tossing as a point echomail without a + seen-by line. + + mbsebbs: + Automatic dynamic detection of the users screensize. + There is no check anymore for a valid tty with network calls, + instead a fake ttyinfo record is created.

But there were too + many problems that a stable release wasn't a good idea. + + general: + Due to lack of maintainers italian language support is dropped. + Upgraded to ftscprod.010 + Added port to OpenBSD, is under test (and doesn't work yet). + Code cleanup so that compile stops on unknown OSes and CPUs + instead of missing code parts. + Added Unix codepage KOI8-R (Russian) and patches from Dmitry + Komissaroff. + Updated Copyright notices to 2004 to 2005. + From filetranfer records removed the batch and bidirectional + switches, these are no longer needed. + Added new subdirectory mbutils. Some sources from the mbsebbs + subdirectory are moved there. + Changed the CFLAGS back from -O3 to -O2 since there seem some + stablity problems and I want to rule out the possibility that + this is caused by bad gcc optimisation. + + upgrade: + In mbsetup menu 8.2 remove the Italian language. + In /opt/mbse "rm -rf italian". + In /opt/mbse/etc "rm italian.lang". + Or keep it, but you need to take care of updating this language + yourself. + Check mbsetup 7.n.3.14 and 7.n.3.15 settings. + You may limit the mailhistory.html size by setting 1.15.8 + Check mbsetup 1.13.4 and 1.13.5, they should be empty or point + to valid and readable logfiles. If set then ftp and or www + downloads are counted as valid downloads. + Enter setup menu 8.4 once and leave to clear unused data. + Start mbsetup, in screen 1.2 item 10, add your real internet + name or IP there. This MUST be the name that is returned when + you do a nslookup on your external IP address. + Add the following line to /etc/services: + fido 60179/udp # chatserver + Make sure you remove everything related to bbslist menus from + your menus and txtfiles. + Start mbsetup and leave. + You might want to check menu 8.5, file transfer protocols since + we now have internal protocols. + + nodelist.a: + Clear node Hold or Down status if set in nodes setup. + + mbselib.a: + Removed some debug logging. + Added a function to clean subject lines from garbage, trailing + spaces etc. to improve message linking. + Added code for Internet BBS Chat. + + msgbase.a: + Fixed JAM pack function, the lastread pointers could be wrong + if the last messages of an area were deleted. + + libdiesel.a: + Changed the maximum string length from 2560 to 4096 characters. + + libmbinet.a: + Fixed error messages when the host to connect to has a DNS + error. + + charset: + Changed rfc-2045 name x-mac to mac. Changed x-ibmpc to cp437. + This allows rfc mime headers to show official names. + Added some basic things to support Chinese. + + mbcico: + Added support for binkp GZ and BZ2 compression. Can be turned + off per node. To use it configure with --enable-experiment. + Record previous session state so we can better react on failed + sessions. + Added detection of remote options NR, ND and NDA to prepare + for implementation. + Rewrote inbound handling for binkp sessions so that recovery + from failed sessions works, even with compressed transfers. + Fixed crash on received m_get command. + Increased binkp timeout from 180 to 300 seconds. + Added protection during binkp receive for zero bytes compressed + data frames, this will cause uncompress error -5 because zero + bytes can't be compressed at all. + Fixed test for valid aka's in the EMSI handshake that prevented + that host aka's (node /0) were not presented to the remote. + (thanks Przemyslaw Kwiatkowski). + Removed binkp extra debug logging and some standard debug logging. + Added auto workaround for Internet Rex 2.24 upto 2.29 binkp bug. + However, it is still wise to set the "No binkp/1.1" setting in + the node setup if you have a record for such node. + + mbout: + Code cleanup. + + mbfido: + If some newsarticles are not accepted for post, don't treat + this as fatal and clear the sendqueue. + Removed soft-cr filter during message import. + Code cleanup. + Added debug logging in rfc2ftn to track a rare problem. + Added error logmessage in case *.msg path isn't defined. + Fixed a segfault when echomail.jam or netmail.jam is corrupted + when scanning for outgoing mail. + Fixed fido style from address for posting news. + Reinstalled charset translation on the gateway. Changed the + way how FTN kludges are translated to RFC headers. + Dropped support for newsgroup distribution. + In tic processing changed pointer type for seenby lists. + Fixed running out of file descriptors when there are lots of + bad mailpackets. + Fixed commandline parser for mail recipients. + Added subject line clean in several places. + When message areas are autocreated, golded.inc and msg.txt are + recreated for the external editors. + The web stats can now limit the size of mailhistory.html + The FileMgr command connects news nodes SR if set for the tic + area. + Empty *.msg netmails for our own system are dropped with and + logged (just like received empty netmails). Empty netmails to + remote systems are still stored in the netmail base. + Added debug logging for exporting netmails from the messagebase + so that we later can decide to mark these messages auto deleted. + In rfc2ftn a debug logmessage added to check for unrecognised + message ids. + With html create the general strings are now converted to html + entinities. + + mbnntp: + Removed some debug logging. + Added leading zeros for generated msgid's. + Improved charset detection. + Does now send the right mime headers recognised by news clients. + Fixed compile problem with some compilers. + When sending the mime header with the charset used to the news + client, the original message charset is tried first, else the + area charset, else the users charset and if all failed, we send + the us-ascci charset as default. + More patches added from Dmitry Komissaroff to improve charset + support. Also improved msgid linking. + Removed dead timercode. + Code cleanup. + When a message is posted without RFC Messageid, a fidonet MSGID + is fresh created. + Changed X-JAM kludges to X-FTN kludges to make it compatible + with the rest of the gates. + Patches from Dmitry Komissaroff to make charset translation + work on message subject lines. It will now also send the right + charset for the user in the charset header line so that the + client will show the message in the users charset. + + mbfile: + Code cleanup. + With the index command only changed areas are indexed. This + removes the feature request for a switch per area from the + TODO list because this solution works better and much faster. + Dropped support for areas on CDrom. + The adopt command now first checks if the filename is 8.3 or a + long filename and the correct format for import is then set. + With mbfile import, download counters in files.bbs are skipped. + When the file description was missing in files.bbs with the + import command, mbfile would crash. Now a dummy description is + inserted. + The directory from which the import is done is first tested for + write access, if forbidden then no import is done. This also + means you cannot import directly from CD's but that you need + to copy the CD contents first to a harddisk. + Better error reporting if something is wrong. + The import command now also figures out the difference between + 8.3 and long filenames and does the right thing during import. + During file import the destination is tested for both 8.3 and + LFN for an existing file. Improved error reporting. + With mbfile import the original file isn't renamed anymore. + Fixed error reporting when files in files.bbs were not found + on disk. + In mbfile check added a check for the filemode of the real file + in the download area, if it's not 0644 it will be corrected. + With adopt, import and move allow to overwrite a file with the + same name if the -f option is used on the commandline. + + mbsebbs: + Code cleanup. + Changed syntax for calling mbpasswd. + Blocked sysop to chat and page the sysop. Sysops use mbmon. + Fixed errormessage if chatserver is not available. + Added language prompts 29 and 30. + Added logging of remote host and terminal. + Added subject line clean in several places. + Fixed headerlines for posting news. + Fixed headerlines for posting email. + When a message is posted by a user, the CHRS kludge of the user + is used in the message, not the area setting. + When a user logs in, the users locale (guessed value from his + characterset) is set.
