v0.91.9 16-May-2007
general:
Fixed building on FreeBSD, tested on 5.3
v0.91.8 26-Apr-2007 - 16-May-2007
upgrade:
Make sure mbtask is restarted.
mbcico:
Added mbtask command to update the MIB counters.
mbfido:
Added mbtask commands to update the MIB counters.
Fixed mbfile import with too many description lines in
files.bbs
Fixed a buffer overflow when processing TIC files with a lot
of garbage in it.
mbnewusr:
Fixed loading default language for new user.
mbtask:
Added SNMP MIB counters and added set commands to increase
these new counters. Note, there is no SNMP interface yet.
v0.91.7 07-Mar-2007 - 26-Apr-2007
mbselib:
If find_rfc_charset doesn't find a valid characterset we log a
warning instead of an error.
Fixed some charset names using IANA information.
Removed duplicate table column.
mbfido:
In rfc2ftn if we cannot find the incoming charset from the
standard table we will fall back to the charset in the
Content-type: header and try to initialize iconv with that
value.
For debug help to me, the headers Content-Type and
Content-Transfer-Encoding are temporary stored in the fido
message as kludges.
mbindex:
When the first Zone entry is missing in the nodelist, mbindex
aborts with a fatal error and doesn't replace the nodelist
index.
Keep the latest 4 instead of 2 nodelists in the nodelist
directory to allow a few weeks for recovery.
mbdiff:
Wrote a lf instead of eof character as last character in the
new nodelist.
Fixed CRC error made by previous change.
mbnntp:
Suppress logging of passwords.
v0.91.6 05-Mar-2007 - 07-Mar-2007
upgrade:
This upgrade is not needed if you are happy with the current
symbolic links in the download fileareas.
You need to remove all existing symbolic links with paths, and
recreate the symbolic links without pathnames do:
mbse$ cd /opt/mbse/ftp
mbse$ find pub -type l -exec rm '{}' \;
mbse$ mbfile check
mbfido:
The add file function now creates links without pathnames.
mbfile:
The check command now repairs filenames without using absolute
pathnames.
The adopt, import and move functions now make links without
path.
mbsebbs:
Uploaded files now have symlinks without pathnames.
v0.91.5 18-Feb-2007 - 05-Mar-2007
With this version de default internal character encoding is
UTF-8. BBS users who have a UTF-8 terminal can use the bbs in
UTF-8 mode and should have no troubles at all reading and
writing messages in several language encodings.
There is extra logging which will go away ASAP.
upgrade:
Compile and install this new version.
In all macro files html.* change the charset to UTF-8.
If you still have all default macro files then in the source
directory mbsebbs/examples simply run "make macros" to install
the updated versions.
Run "mbfile index -f " once to regenerate all download html
index pages with UTF-8 encoding. Check the error.log for
errors.
In mbsetup menu 1.3.7 change logo.asc into logo.ans and make
sure you have that file. A note about the logo file, it will
be displayed before we know if a user has a utf-8 or ansi
terminal, so change your logo screen so that it has no ansi
grafic characters, just plain ascii with ansi color codes.
Start and leave mbsetup, this will upgrade the newfiles and
filefind reports to set a defaults CHRS kludge CP437 2 which
is good for reports with ANSI blockgraphics.
mbselib:
Fixed a too low memory allocation in clencode.
mbsebbs:
Added terminal setting UTF-8.
Removed setting ANSI/Textmode, allways graphic now.
All *.asc textfiles are now obsolete, only *.ans are valid.
Display ansi file converts to UTF-8 if the user has UTF-8.
Email and FTN mail reading now translates to the users
characterset using glibc iconv.
Changed menus lastcallers, whoson, userlist, pinfo, fsedit,
timestats, filelist to output UTF-8 code if the user has set
that terminal setting.
mbfile:
The index command produces UTF-8 webpages.
mbfido:
The make web stat produces UTF-8 webpages.
mbaff:
For each newfileis and filefind report there is now a CHRS
kludge setting. Reports will be converted to the selected
charset. Origin characterset is CP437 for now.
mball:
Now also creates allfiles.utf and newfiles.utf with UTF-8
encoded text. These new files will also be added to the zip
archives.
mbnntp:
Reading news outputs UTF-8 coded articles. Posting is done
with the client side charset and translated when needed.
mbtask:
Fixed a too low memory allocation in clencode.
mbsetup:
In newfiles and filefind reports the Hi-ASCII setting is gone
and a CHRS kludge selection is added. Defaults to CP437 2.
lang:
Language prompts 44, 75 and 76 are obsolete.
script:
Adjusted editor script to use nansi.sys if ansi.sys is not
available in the terminfo database.
examples:
Upgraded the html macro templates to produce UTF-8 web pages.
Upgraded the txtfiles examples to only have .ans screens. The
logo.ans screen now works on ANSI and UTF-8 terminals.
v0.91.4 17-Feb-2007 - 18-Feb-2007
upgrade:
Because some directories will be moved, a special upgrade
procedure is needed. Take the following steps:
1. Don't install the new source yet and make a backup!
2. In the source topdir run "make clean".
3. Install the new source.
4. Build new source, "./configure" and "make".
5. Run "./mbsetup/mbsetup", enter global setup and leave with
save. this should move all your existing language files to
the new directory structure.
6. "su", run "make install" and restart the bbs.
7. "exit".
If you didn't do steps 1 and 2 (automatic updates) and you
installed the source over the old source you have some
extra files in the lang subdir of the source. No big deal.
If you didn't run steps 5 then the new language paths have
the default files from source and not your own. Your own files
are then still under ~/english/*.* ~/dutch/*.* etc. Move the
contents of these subdirs into ~/share/int/menus/en/* etc.
mbselib:
Moved default language paths into ~/share/int
mbsebbs:
Moved default language paths into ~/share/int
mbsetup:
Moved default language paths into ~/share/int
mbtask:
Moved default language paths into ~/share/int
lang:
Renamed language files and changed installation paths.
