Hi all.
I've put a 0.44test3 release up - it has various fixes and improvements.
The changelog follows.
Matt
0.44test3 - Fri Aug 27 22:20:54 +0800
- Fixed a bunch of warnings.
- scp works correctly when passed a username (fix for the dbclient program
itself as well, "-lmatt" works as well as "-l matt").
- Remove unrequired debian files
- Exit with the remote process's return code for dbclient
- Display stderr messages from the server in the client
- Add circular buffering to the channel code. This should dramatically reduce
the amount of backtraffic sent in response to traffic incoming to the
Dropbear end - improves high-latency performance (ie dialup).
- Various other related channel-handling fixups.
- Allow leading lines in the banner when connecting to servers
- Fixed printing out errors onto the network socket with stderr (for inetd
mode when using xinetd)
- Remove obselete documentation
- Fix a null-pointer exception when trying to free non-existant listeners
at cleanup.
- DEBUG_TRACE now only works if you add "-v" to the program commandline
- Don't leave stdin non-blocking on exit - this caused the parent shell
of dbclient to close when dbclient exited, for some shells in BusyBox
- Server connections no longer timeout after 5 minutes
- Fixed stupid DSS hostkey typo (server couldn't load host keys)
