- Bug 3286 - Client command field in scoreboard entry too short for SSH2/SFTP
commands.
- Bug 3229 - LangDefault does not accept any setting on FreeBSD.
- Bug 2368 - Allow contrib modules to extend mod_sql's SQLAuthTypes. This
also includes a new mod_sql_passwd contrib module which can handle
hex- and base64-encoded MD5 and SHA1 passwords, without the leading
"{digest}" prefix required by the mod_sql OpenSSL SQLAuthType.

available.
- Bug 3214 - ftpwho/ftptop truncate UTF8 strings due to byte, versus character,
lengths.
- Bug 3300 - Support disabling use of S_RLOGIN when calling AIX
loginrestrictions(). A new AuthUnixOptions directive is added to support
just this one setting, 'aixNoRLogin'.
1.3.3rc1 - Released 30-Jun-2009
--------------------------------
- Bug 1801 - Faulty SQLConnectInfo PERCALL policy - connections not closed
after each call.
- Bug 2894 - Deprecate the AnonymousGroup directive.
- Bug 3123 - Use PQescapeStringConn() rather than PQescapeString().
- Bug 3133 - mod_facts should advertise TVFS support in the FEAT response.
- Bug 3128 - mod_sql_sqlite should use transactions for INSERT/UPDATE
statements.
- Bug 3155 - Change the IdentLookups default to 'off'. The RFC1413 IDENT
lookup adds latency to the login process, so much so that it is a FAQ
to configure "IdentLookups off". In addition, the IDENT protocol is not
secure; it can easily be spoofed using man-in-the-middle attacks. Sites
that require IDENT lookups must now explicitly configure "IdentLookups on".
- Bug 3156 - Allow resumed downloads when HiddenStore is in effect.
- Bug 3170 - RewriteMap unescape URL encoding broken by RewriteCondition
backreference handling.
- Bug 2728 - Support for variables in ServerIdent directive. The %L, %V,
and %v variables are now supported for ServerIdent identity strings.
- Bug 3178 - mod_wrap2 does not handle IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses.
- Bug 3179 - Restarted proftpd using mod_shaper will segfault.
- Bug 2720 - HideUser/HideGroup should be more flexible.
- Bug 3183 - Incorrect logging to wtmp.
- Bug 2608 - DNS should not be used for "server config" address discovery.
A new -S command-line option has been added, for specifying the IP address
to use for the host, rather than using DNS to resolve the host IP address
from the hostname.
- Bug 3184 - When started in a chroot, proftpd fails to set transfer buffer
size.
- Added mod_sftp, mod_sftp_pam, and mod_sftp_sql to the contrib modules.
- Bug 3185 - mod_wrap2 does not honour partial DNS name in access files.
This appears to have been a regression caused by the fix for Bug#3178.
- Bug 3186 - Support use of <IfClass> directive with mod_ban. The
BanEngine directive can now appear in an <IfClass> section, in order
to exclude connection classes from mod_ban's rules.
- Bug 3188 - prxs broken due to typo.
- Bug 3154 - Update bundled libtool version. The bundled libltdl version
has been updated to libtool 1.5.26.
- Bug 3111 - Support SSL/TLS server certificates stored in PKCS#12 files.
- Bug 3189 - Linker errors occur when using "make -j" parallel builds.
ProFTPD now builds successfully using "make -jN", where N is the number
of simultaneous build processes to use.
- Bug 3176 - Postgres chokes on standard charset names.
- Bug 3129 - Support configurable scoreboard scrubbing. A new configuration
directive, ScoreboardScrub, can be used to control whether the ScoreboardFile
is scrubbed, and how often.

tool now handles the $Libraries$ build system hints in source files,
and honors the DESTDIR environment variable.
- Bug 3167 - Support rewriting of home directories.
- Bug 2985 - Newest .spec file requires relatively current version of RPM.
The provided .spec file now requires RPM 4.2 or later.
- Bug 3207 - Support for SSL/TLS session caching across processes/machines.
The mod_tls module now supports a TLSSessionCache directive, and an API
for modules to provide external SSL session caching mechanisms.
- Bug 3210 - Data transfers protected by SSL/TLS should reuse the control
connection SSL session. If the TLSRequired policy allows/requires SSL/TLS
protections on data transfers, then reuse of the SSL session from the
control connection is now enforced. Use "TLSOptions NoSessionReuseRequired"
to relax this requirement.
- Bug 3215 - mod_wrap2_sql should support comma-delimited lists of clients.
This is the same as Bug#3048, only it affects the mod_wrap2_sql module.
- Bug 2613 - Configure script should not append '/proftpd' to the
--localstatedir.

- Bug 3231 - Use getgrset(3) on AIX to emulate getgrouplist(3).
- Bug 3043 - SQLGroupInfo should allow custom queries. See the SQLGroupInfo
description for more information.
- Bug 2178 - Extend TLSRequired for <Directory> and .ftpaccess contexts.
- Bug 3209 - mod_wrap2 should support the 'spawn' feature (or equivalent) of
tcpwrappers. Using mod_wrap/mod_wrap2 in conjunction with the mod_exec
module, this is now possible.
- Bug 3225 - Opening of files during restart can inappropriately use
stdin/stdout/stderr descriptors, leading to bad behavior. The "bad behavior"
can manifest as server shutdown (due to mod_tls errors),
"Bad file descriptor" log messages, etc.
- Bug 3234 - SSL connections can cause 100% CPU usage.
- Bug 3233 - Dynamic config causes many copies of static configs to be merged.

- Bug 3247 - "TLSRequired auth" and "TLSOptions AllowPerUser" are incompatible.
- Bug 3256 - "SO_OOBINLINE" error occuring again. This is a regression of
Bug 2332 caused by code movement in 1.3.2.
- Bug 3258 - Log cluttered with "using sendfile capability" messages.
- Bug 3261 - Badly formatted TLSRenegotiate directive causes proftpd to hang.
- Bug 3257 - CAP_AUDIT_WRITE capability needed for some PAM modules.
- Bug 3243 - Broken support for AllowOverride per user/group/class conditionals.
The user/group/class conditional arguments to the AllowOverride directive
were not properly honored. The fix for this is to remove all support in
the AllowOverride directive, and instead use mod_ifsession for conditionals.

--------------------------------
- Added Chinese translation
- Bug 3076 - RPM build failing on 64 bit OS due to incomplete .spec.
- Bug 3082 - Use "DEFAULT" keyword instead of "ALL" for Trace directive.
Hopefully the "DEFAULT" keyword will be more accurate, more descriptive
of the actual functionality triggered by the keyword.
- Bug 3083 - Multiple issues with handling of <Class> definitions.
- Bug 3077 - Transparently handle the X-variant commands when checking
<Limit> permissions.

handling GroupOwner, when root privileges need to be used for the
configured group.
- Bug 3101 - mod_wrap2 does not compile on FreeBSD with custom includes.
- Bug 3098 - Socket descriptor leak when using syslog logging, especially at
SyslogLevel 'notice' or higher.
- Bug 3055 - Support Display variable for specifying the timestamp format.
See doc/howto/DisplayFiles.html for more information.
- Bug 2537 - mod_sql does not support %{...}t variable. SQLNamedQuery
statements can now use "%{time:...}" variables for formatting time strings
using strftime(3).
- Bug 2564 - Improper logging of "max connections per host". The issue was
one of the timing of the logging of the "Login successful" message. Now
it happens as part of a LOG_CMD handler for the PASS command.
- Bug 3104 - Syslog logging does not work on Mac OS X.
- Bug 2991 - Need a `prxs' (ProFTPD Extensions) command-line tool for building
shared modules without proftpd source.

SSL/TLS protocol information to the TLSLog.
- Bug 2969 - Allow APPE after REST.
- Bug 2983 - Use getgrouplist(3) for group lookup, if available. This may
potentially speed up the group membership lookup on some systems.
- Bug 2984 - mod_auth_file uid2name() does not cache results causing slow LIST
response.
- Bug 2925 - Add caching of IP address and DNS name lookups. This may help
speed up data transfers, especially rapid-fire data transfers as used by
"download accelerators".
- Bug 2979 - Ability to ban clients which connect too often. The mod_ban
module now supports a "ClientConnectRate" BanOnEvent rule.
- Bug 2987 - Verbose ban information (i.e. 'ftpdctl ban info -v') not working
on FreeBSD.
- Bug 2986 - Authoritative PAM is not honored.
- Bug 2988 - mod_wrap2_file ignores "ALL" keyword.

SITE CHMOD.
- Bug #2995 - The %f LogFormat variable expanded to same file for RNFR and
RNTO.

- Bug 3020 - Server replies to NLST with 450 at the wrong time.
- Bug 1771 - mod_ratio compile warnings.
- Bug 1973 - mod_ratio uses the too-small int datatype for tracking bytes.
The mod_ratio module has been updated to use off_t, instead of int, for
tracking bytes.

and passwdexpired() functions, if present, are now used by the mod_auth_unix
module during login.
- Bug 2453 - Separate RFC1413 code into mod_ident module.
- Bug 3023 - Allow uploading to /dev/null. This allows testing of network
link speeds by uploading directly to /dev/null on the server.

glob ACLs.
- Bug 3033 - Class rules not honoring '!' negation character.
- Bug 3034 - Rewritten command parameters need to be set in multiple places.
- Bug 2577 - IPv6 support should be enabled by default. IPv6 support is
now enabled by default in the proftpd build, but the shipping
proftpd.conf has:
UseIPv6 off
To disable IPv6 support completely at build time, use the --disable-ipv6
configure option.
- Bug 2000 - mod_cap should not use bundled libcap. Now if a system libcap
is present, that system library will be used instead of the bundled libcap.
If no system libcap is present, the bundled libcap will be used.
- Bug 3044 - Segfault if mod_delay fails to load DelayTable.
- Bug 3048 - mod_wrap2_file should support comma-delimited lists of clients.
- Bug 3045 - "QuotaOptions ScanOnLogin" does not work for 'class' or
'all' limits.
- Bug 3047 - BanOnEvent should support optional ban message. Now messages
for individual ban rules can be configured, in addition to the BanMessage
directive.

bytes/files values.
- Bug 3056 - Support non-UTF8 encoding and character sets. See
doc/modules/mod_lang.html for more information on the UseEncoding directive.
- Bug 3064 - Better handling of 0xFF character for Cyrillic, non-UTF8 charsets.
These character sets use the same value as the Telnet IAC character in
the alphabet. RFC959 states that FTP control messages must support Telnet
characters; this requirement causes problems for the character sets.
This the RFC959 requirement is relaxed if --enable-nls is used, and if
one of the problematic character sets is configured.

This is actually caused by a particular combination of compiler flags
(-O2 and -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), which are used by the `rpmbuild'
command in some Linux releases.
- Bug 2974 - Install error if multiple modules, using their own build script,
are built as shared modules.

- Bug 2686 - Allow CCC command but still require SSL/TLS protection during
authentication.
- Bug 2628 - SQLHomedirOnDemand should be deprecated. The CreateHome
directive should be used instead.
- Bug 2627 - Support for RADIUS quotatab module. The mod_quotatab_radius
module has been added to the contrib/ directory. See README.modules
and doc/contrib/mod_quotatab_radius.html for more information.
- Bug 2651 - LogFormat should support variable for logging the response
message. A new %S logging variable has been added.
- Bug 2447 - HAVE_OPENSSL should be managed by configure. There is a
new configure option, --enable-openssl, which is honored by mod_ldap
and mod_sql. This configure option can be used instead of using
the HAVE_OPENSSL CFLAGS variable, although HAVE_OPENSSL will still work.
- Bug 2733 - IP TOS not being set for data transfers. Other socket-level
options were not being properly honored for data transfers, too.
- Added mod_ban. See doc/contrib/mod_ban.html for more details.
- Enhanced the mod_sql API to allow other modules (such as mod_conf_sql)
to make fuller use of SQL databases via mod_sql.
- Bug 2713 - Ability to check a user's existing disk bytes/files usage and
update tally accordingly. The mod_quotatab module now has a QuotaOptions
directive, one of whose parameters is ScanOnLogin, which directs the
module to update existing tallies after scanning the user's home
directory.
- Bug 2786 - REST in ASCII mode returns error but leaves session in
inconsistent state.
- Bug 2785 - IPv4-mapped IPv6 network ACLs not matched properly against
IPv4 connections.
- Bug 2732 - Support for DisplayChdir, rather than DisplayFirstChdir.
- Bug 2506 - Better ability to configure what sort of debug output to generate.
This is done via the new Trace and TraceLog directives.
- Bug 2514 - Trouble with mod_tls and DSA certificates.
- Bug 2792 - ProFTPD fails after SIGHUP signal when Controls support is
enabled.
- Bug 2775 - Support for DisplayFileTransfer directive.
- Bug 2793 - LogFormat variable for the ProFTPD version. This adds a
"%{version}" variable to the LogFormat directive.
- Bug 2797 - Add ability to force cleaning the scoreboard. This can now
be done using "ftpdctl scoreboard scrub".
- Bug 2800 - free_proc_title() in developer build tries to free strings from
pool allocated by mod_tls.
- Bug 2801 - Error compiling proftpd on NetBSD 3.0/sparc64.
- Bug 2687 - Support for more efficient group table schema. A new
directive, SQLOptions, has been added. One possible parameter of this
directive is 'useNormalizedGroupSchema', in which case mod_sql will
process the group info table in a more efficient manner.
- Bug 2798 - MDTM should return time in GMT. MDTM responses now always use GMT.
- Bug 2784 - Ability to specify MySQL Unix domain socket path.
- Bug 2610 - Support for logging to /var/log/lastlog. See the RELEASE_NOTES
for more details on how to use this feature.
- Bug 2710 - ProFTPD should install its header files into the installation
location. The `make install' target now causes proftpd header files,
including config.h, to be installed into a include/proftpd/ directory
in the installation location.
- Bug 2626 - ERROR macro collision can cause compiler errors on HP-UX.
The ERROR, DECLINED, and HANDLED macros have been renamed PR_ERROR,
PR_DECLINED, and PR_HANDLED, respectively. Compatibility macros for
older contrib modules are available.
- Bug 2807 - mod_sql processes SQLLog QUIT query twice. This bug is a
consequence of Bug 1965.
- Bug 2810 - Incorrect use of assignment instead of comparison in mod_wrap.
- Bug 2803 - mod_auth_file does not properly iterate through AuthUserFile
entries.
- Bug 2809 - conf.h should be included before mysql.h in mod_sql_mysql.c.
- Bug 2774 - Idle clients exhibit excessive usage of system resources.
This occurs because of interrupted system calls, which trigger tightly
spinning retry loops within the process. The ability to tune the delay
used in these retry loops has been added to address this behavior.
- Added mod_wrap2, mod_wrap2_file, and mod_wrap2_sql. See
doc/contrib/mod_wrap2.html for more details.
- Bug 2825 - SSL/TLS CRLs are not working properly.
- Bug 2835 - Group quotas not honored for supplemental group membership.
- Bug 2837 - Defines improperly persist across daemon restarts.
- Bug 2839 - ProFTPD seems to re-read the file two times in RETR command.
The problem was one where sendfile() was being used, and the sendfile()
called failed for some reason. In that case, proftpd would fall back
to transmitting the data via normal, non-sendfile() means. If the
sendfile() call had actually sent data to the client already, this
fallback attempt would result in the client receiving too much data.
Now, if there was an error using sendfile(), proftpd logs the error
and considers it a failed transfer due to an I/O error.
- Bug 2756 - Support for TLSPassPhraseProvider.
- Bug 2799 - SQLNamedQuery should support environment variables. SQL
queries defined using the SQLNamedQuery directive can now use
"%{env:VAR}" to have the environment variable VAR substituted into the
query.
- Bug 2828 - Support variables in SQL Where directives. Now the variables
supported for SQLNamedQuery statements, except for "%{n}" numeric
references, are also supported for the SQLGroupWhereClause and
SQLUserWhereClause directives.
- Bug 2842 - Filesystem statcache is not correctly caching return value of
stat().
- Bug 2817 - Ability to disable IPv6 support at runtime. You can now
configure "UseIPv6 off" in your proftpd.conf to disable IPv6 support
(assuming proftpd was compiled using --enable-ipv6).
- Bug 2847 - HiddenStores files not properly removed if data transfer times
out.
- Bug 2848 - Unable to properly parse config files using Windows-style line
endings. Such line endings can appear in the proftpd.conf if the file
is transferred using Windows machines, or using FTP clients that do not
properly translate CRLF to LF when handling ASCII files.
- Bug 2850 - Small event pool allocation on 64-bit machine leads to segfault
on startup.
- Bug 2860 - Failure to check for data length in mod_tls could lead to remote
buffer overwriting.
- Bug 2863 - LIST of nonexistent file causes RST on data channel.
- Bug 2862 - NLST / returns a listing of the current directory.
- Bug 2867 - Local authorized user buffer overflow in Controls request
handling.
1.3.0a - Released 27-Nov-2006
--------------------------------
- Bug 2858 - CVE-2006-5815: remote code execution in ProFTPD.
1.3.0 - Released 16-Apr-2006
--------------------------------
- Bug 2733 - libtool requires sh/bash.
- Bug 2770 - FreeBSD compiler warning that "__GLIBC__" is not defined.
- Bug 2771 - FreeBSD compiler warning about undeclared fgetpwent/fgetgrent
functions.
- Bug 2772 - FreeBSD compiler warning that "_FILE_OFFSET_BITS" is not defined.
1.3.0rc5 - Released 18-Mar-2006
--------------------------------
- Bug 2757 - Add support for quota modules to RPM spec.
- Bug 2759 - Adding --with-includes to configure can cause problems when
building with other packages. Fixed so that CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS are
restored to their original settings after running the configure
script. This was a regression (of sorts) from fixing Bug #2708.
- Bug 2764 - REST command does not return an error for negative numbers.
- Bug 2717 - Wrong timestamp in logs for chrooted processes. Ultimately
this behavior looks to be a glibc bug. In the meantime, the workaround
is to manually set the TZ environment variable, if it is not already
set, before calling chroot(). This bug appears to be specific to
glibc, thus the workaround is only enabled on platforms using glibc-2.3
or later.
- Bug 2765 - Child process segfaults while handling a SIGTERM.
- Bug 2723 - mod_delay causes process to hang on OS X when proftpd exits.
1.3.0rc4 - Released 01-Mar-2006
--------------------------------
- Bug 2703 - Disk quota exceeded for small files not being triggered.
- Bug 2706 - utmp/wtmp logging on NetBSD needs some tweaks.
- Bug 2708 - configure cannot detect some headers. The configure
script now adds the directories mentioned via the --with-includes
and --with-libraries options to the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment
variables.
- Bug 2711 - Controls socket detection broken.
- Bug 2712 - DisplayFirstChdir directive does not work.
- Bug 2705 - proftpd fails to log anything to syslog after dropping privs
on Solaris. This happens because of the default permissions on /dev/log
on Solaris.
- Portability tweaks for Mac OS 10.4.
- Bug 2729 - Authorative PAM authentication doesn't work. The mod_auth_pam
module still had code for supporting the deprecated AuthPAMAuthoritative
directive. As per Bug #2440, however, the AuthOrder directive should
be used for configuring authoritativeness. This fixes mod_auth_pam
to behave properly using the new AuthOrder setting.
- Bug 2709 - mod_sql improperly strips spaces from names, allowing for
confusing authentication.
- Bug 2735 - Allow REST 0 in ASCII mode.
- Bug 2746 - Data transfer function does not return error condition in case of
read errors.
- Bug 2752 - FEAT reply not RFC 2389 compliant.
1.3.0rc3 - Released 31-Oct-2005
--------------------------------
- Bug 2660 - Add mod_facl in rpm spec file.
- Bug 2662 - OpenSolaris/Solaris 11 has TCP_CORK but not SOL_TCP.
- Bug 2667 - mod_tls handles SIGHUP badly.
- Bug 2668 - mod_ctrls fails to open socket during SIGHUP.
- Bug 2669 - mod_radius segfaults if PASS command sent with no USER command.
- Bug 2674 - mod_sql string escape problem during group lookups.
- Bug 2676 - configure option --disable-ipv6 enables IPv6.
- Bug 2685 - ListOptions' max parameters cannot be set higher than 255.
- Bug 2689 - Parser does not complain about unclosed configuration sections.
- Bug 2695 - Client IP/host is not logged when client exits.
- Bug 2697 - Improper SSL session shutdown sequence used for some FTPS clients.
- Bug 2682 - Signals can interrupt privilege switching.
- Bug 2692 - R_DUP response messages can break the FTP protocol responses.
1.3.0rc2 - Released 24-Jul-2005
--------------------------------
- Bug 2584 - mod_sql_postgres missing end-of-comment character.
- Bug 2587 - HideNoAccess does not work for DefaultRoot/<Anonymous> logins.
- Bug 2590 - AIX uses unsigned int for ULONG_MAX, causing printf format warning.
- Bug 2591 - wrong argument type in call to pr_log_debug in mod_delay.c on AIX.
- Bug 2593 - `make install-modules' does not honour DESTDIR enviroment variable.
- Bug 2596 - STAT command can cause segfault.
- Bug 2588 - AIX requires _USE_IRS #define to use hstrerror().
- Bug 2582 - ProFTPD on Tru64 with SIA does not call sia_ses_estab().
- Added new 'dns' control to mod_ctrls_admin, for enabling/disabling
UseReverseDNS configuration at runtime. See doc/contrib/mod_ctrls_admin.html
for details.
- Bug 2605 - Compiler warnings/errors about missing typecasts on HP-UX.
- Bug 2589 - Makefile in modules/ directory is not portable.
- Bug 2598 - Build system should check for duplicate module requests.
- Bug 2585 - Proftpd does not write RFC 3164 compliant messages into /dev/log.
- Bug 2601 - mod_delay sometimes delays for a long time.
- Bug 2622 - Segfault seen randomly in mod_delay.
- Bug 2578 - ProFTPD does not listen on IPv6 addresses on FreeBSD.
- Bug 2624 - "fh_data" macro collision causes compiler error on Tru64 V5.1A.
- Bug 2250 - Add ports, compiling info to FreeBSD README.
- Bug 2631 - Segfault when using RadiusAcctServer.
- Bug 2632 - Invalid application of `sizeof' to an incomplete type on AIX.
- Bug 2637 - <Limit STAT> does not work.
- Bug 2636 - Data connection failure when handling STOR does not trigger
error response.
- Bug 2639 - HiddenStores does not work.
- Bug 2630 - Use of mmap in mod_delay may be problematic on HP-UX. This
change adds locking of the DelayTable, which may (or may not) also
help on other platforms.
- Bug 2644 - mod_sql_mysql should handle old MySQL password format more
gracefully. Starting with MySQL 4.1.1, the format for passwords stored
using the MySQL PASSWORD() function changed. This format change causes
issues for sites that have passwords stored in the older format. Users
of mod_sql+mod_sql_mysql would see this as users being unable to login.
Now, if compiled against MySQL 4.1.1 or later, mod_sql_mysql will first
check the password using the current MySQL format; if that fails it
will fall back to checking the old format. Note that this only affects
sites which have "SQLAuthTypes Backend" in their proftpd.conf.
- Bug 2647 - Improper "socklen_t" redefine for HP-UX when using X/Open.
- Fixed mod_sql bug where using SQLLog and SQLNamedQuery with the %L or
%a variables, and logging the EXIT pseudo-command, would cause a segfault.
- Bug 2375 - Slow directory listing with several blank .ftpaccess files.
- Bug 2646 - ftpshut format string vulnerability.
- Bug 2645 - SQLShowInfo format string vulnerability.
- Bug 2560 - Reporting errors when user filesystem quota is exceeded.
- Bug 2653 - When MaxStoreFileSize is reached, error should be EDQUOT rather
than EPERM.
- Bug 2657 - Segfault in tls_get_error() function in mod_tls.
- Bug 2658 - Segfault in mod_radius when using long password.
1.3.0rc1 - Released 10-Apr-2005
--------------------------------
- Bug 2449 - ProFTPD silently ignores extra command-line parameters
- Bug 2457 - Directory listing provides bad info when path ends with /.
- Bug 2458 - Bad handling of CreateHome parameters.
- Bug 2463 - mod_xfer doesn't check how many bytes it has written to disk.
- Bug 2476 - Incorrect detection of symbolic link loop across devices.
- Add support for a -V command-line option, which displays various
compile-time settings.
- Bug 2455 - Allow fine-tuning of how often mod_xfer updates the scoreboard.
This adds an --enable-scoreboard-updates configure option.
- Bug 2389 - 64-bit compilation warnings.
- Bug 2468 - Ability to disable address/port collision checking. A new
command-line option, -N, can be used to disable proftpd's checks for
<VirtualHost> address/port collisions.
- Bug 2488 - Wrong order of privs calls on HP generates "unable to setregid()"
error (Bug #2317 revisited).
- Bug 2392 - mod_sql needs better handling of its backend modules.
- Daniel Weuthen <dw@megabit.net> contributed a SuSE-specific init.d script
for ProFTPD.
- Bug 2485 - SQL backend modules close all open connections too early.
This fixes a bug where a "signal 11" would be reported, when a session
ends, if the "EXIT" SQLLog command was configured.
- New mod_ldap version 2.8.13
- Bug 2490 - <Limit ALL> affects PORT command. When the EPRT, EPSV, PASV,
and PORT commands became <Limit>able (see Bug #2086), they became
affected by <Limit ALL> as well, which breaks older configurations.
Using the following configuration:
<Limit PORT PASV>
AllowAll
</Limit>
is a way to workaround this bug in 1.2.10 installations.
- Bug 2492 - Off-by-one error in FreeBSD PAM username length check.
- Bug 2496 - NLST off-by-one bug when handling relative paths in a chrooted
session.
- Bug 2494 - ABOR problem with Cisco routers copy ftp flash.
- Bug 2499 - make_cmd() does not NULL-terminate cmd->argv[].
- Bug 2497 - Users can login without password if pam_start() fails.
- Bug 2273 - Ability to limit number of unauthenticated clients from a single
host. There is a new MaxConnectionsPerHost directive for configuring
the maximum number of connections from a single host at the same time.
- Bug 1965 - Change timing of handling of QUIT command. The actual ending
of the session is now done by LOG_CMD/LOG_CMD_ERR handlers for the QUIT
command. This allows modules that wish to do POST_CMD processing of
QUIT, like mod_sql, a chance to see the command.
- Bug 2484 - Better ftptop formatting.
- Bug 2071 - Add Variables API.
- Added DSO support. See the README.DSO file for more information.
- Bug 2509 - sendfile() usage fails with > 2GB files.
- Bug 2480 - Remote users discovery. Leon Juranic described an information
leak via timing differences in the handling of the USER command for
valid versus invalid users. The mod_delay module was added to address
this timing difference. See doc/modules/mod_delay.html for details.
- Bug 2518 - Ability to log SSL/TLS commands in an ExtendedLog. A
new "SEC" logging class has been added for use in ExtendedLog directives,
e.g 'ExtendedLog /path/to/rfc2228.log SEC'.
- Bug 2507 - Enable use of sendfile by default. Use the new UseSendfile
directive to disable, e.g. 'UseSendfile off'.
- Bug 2471 - Restart command (REST) is not working correctly for text files.
When in ASCII mode, ProFTPD now refuses to handle REST. This behavior
is documented in doc/howto/ASCII.html.
- Bug 2454 - Extend <VirtualHost> to honor multiple addresses. With this
change, the Bind directive is now deprecated. See the RELEASE_NOTES
for more details.
- Bug 2516 - Getting "421 Login Timeout" immediately upon connect.
- Bug 2520 - Turning on AuthAliasOnly disables MaxClientsPerHost.
- Bug 2510 - Use of ExportCertData TLSOption leads to segfault.
- Bug 2528 - Incorrect username 'and' parsing in AllowUser.
- Bug 2170 - Add byte count variables, similar to the file count Display
variables. The added variable names are:
%{total_bytes_in}
%{total_bytes_out}
%{total_bytes_xfer}
In addition, variables of a similar syntax can be used for display
file counts, instead of the already-existing variables:
%{total_files_in}
%{total_files_out}
%{total_files_xfer}
- Bug 2027 - Add log message for timed out passive transfers.
- Bug 2406 - Add a SQLEngine directive. See the mod_sql documentation
for details.
- Bug 2229 - NLST and LIST behave differently e.g. when listing an empty
directory.
- Bug 2534 - Add suport for -S ListOption, for sorting files by file size.
- Bug 2536 - mod_ifsession does not properly merge in all directives.
- Bug 2540 - Fails to disable mod_delay if no DelayTable file exists.
- Bug 2541 - <Directory ~user> path resolved at startup time, rather than at
session time.
- Bug 2549 - Allow contrib modules to be built from multiple source files.
- Bug 1651 - Add contrib module to limit connection acceptance based on system
load. mod_load is now one of the provided contrib/ modules.
- Bug 2503 - Bundled libcap library does not compile on IA64 machine.
- Bug 2556 - Rename of directory across devices fails. The solution is to
prevent renaming of directories. Proper support for copying of directories
will require module support.
- Bug 2563 - Linking fails on Solaris with libz and libmysqlclient. The
linker in question was Solaris ld, not GNU ld; the Solaris linker is
more particular about the order of specified libraries. GNU ld is
less strict.
- Bug 2331 - ProFTPD should honor POSIX ACLs. Please read the README.facl
file for more information on POSIX ACL support in ProFTPD.
- Bug 2573 - TLSProtocol directive in proftpd.conf is ignored. By fixing
this bug, sites may find that a mod_tls configuration which worked
prior to 1.3.0rc1 now does not work, failing with an error like
"wrong version number" appearing in the TLSLog. To restore the previous
behavior, these sites can use "TLSProtocol SSLv23" in proftpd.conf.
- Bug 2559 - IPv6 socket option should be set for ServerType inetd.
- Bug 2164 - Support non-PASS response codes (i.e. 232).
- Bug 2515 - mod_quotatab should enforce hard limits at the filesystem level.
- Bug 2567 - Segmentation fault with 64-bit binary due to structure layout
difference.
- Bug 2551 - Recursive LIST with symlinked directories gives duplicate results.
- Bug 2576 - PWD command does not handle " character properly.
- Bug 2493 - mod_tls should support CCC command.
- Bug 2580 - ProFTPD on Tru64 with SIA allows login with blank password.
- Bug 2554 - mod_delay gets segfault-signal on several logins.
1.2.10 - Released 04-Sep-2004
--------------------------------
- Bug 2440 - Unable to use PAM authentication properly. Use a "*" after
the module name in an AuthOrder directive to indicate that an auth
module is authoritative.
- Bug 2441 - AIX5 portability bug with mod_auth_unix, mod_auth_file.
- Bug 2442 - Segfault in FreeBSD PAM library with long login names.
- Bug 2445 - AuthUserFile in <Global> context overrides <VirtualHost> setting.
- Bug 2444 - Use of sendfile() does not interoperate well with RFC2228
security mechanisms. Using sendfile(2) to send data bypasses the handling
of the data by RFC2228 security mechanisms (such as those provided by
mod_tls). So if security mechanisms are detected, do not use sendfile().
- Scrub the ScoreboardFile for stale sessions in inetd mode.
- Bug 2427 - proftpd gets a memory fault when run from ssh batch mode.
1.2.10rc3 - Released 13-Jul-2004
--------------------------------
- Fixed typo that prevented 1.2.10rc2 from compiling.
1.2.10rc2 - Released 13-Jul-2004
---------------------------------
- Bug 2396 - NLST command doesn't understand options. This was caused by
the solution for Bug 2322. However, it is not a popular solution, so
NLST will once again handle options, but only the relevant options.
- Bug 2034 - Add support for a "graceful shutdown" signal. See
contrib/mod_ctrls_admin.html#shutdown for details.
- Bug 2400 - <Class> search order is wrong. The documentation correctly
stated that <Class> sections are matched in order of definition, but the
code has the match order in the reverse order of definition.
- Bug 2401 - MaxClientsPerClass only checks first directive in config file.
- Bug 2399 - Rename start/stop control actions to up/down.
- Bug 2082 - Add mod_rewrite "replaceall" builtin function. See the
RewriteMap documentation for more details.
- Bug 2403 - Sending SIGHUP to proftpd stops it when using Classes. The fix
for Bug #2400 could result in an infinite loop during a SIGHUP.
- Bug 2405 - "LIST *" should not list dotfiles.
- Bug 2366 - Add support for -h LIST option.
- Bug 2332 - SO_OOBINLINE error after upgrading proftpd from 1.2.6 to 1.2.9.
This is due mostly to a change in the logging; a check for error values
and logging of them was added. The setting of this particular socket option
has been moved earlier in the session, as it was found that short-lived
TCP connections, as from monitoring systems, would cause this error.
- Bug 2407 - mod_auth_file does not allow for proper cascading of "end" and
"set" auth requests.
- Bug 2410 - CreateHome always copies skel directory.
- Bug 2336 - Use of /dev/log on Solaris leads to kernel memory leak.
ProFTPD's use of the /dev/log device on Solaris was tickling a Solaris
kernel bug that caused the Solaris kernel to leak memory.
- Added a TimeoutLinger directive to complement the --enable-timeout-linger
configure option.
- Bug 2125 - -vv command line switch should list versions of modules.
- Bug 2420 - Name field is not escaped before querying database.
The mod_quotatab module was not properly escaping the name string it
used when looking up records from SQL databases.
- Bug 2424 - SQLDefaultHomedir overrides column value.
- Bug 2411 - Caching effects cause RNTO to fail if AllowOverwrite is off and
target path does not exist.
- Bug 2422 - %v not working in SQLNamedQuery.
- Bug 2418 - chmod returns 550 with filename containing multiple spaces.
- Bug 2431 - mod_sql does not use UID/GID properly in cache lookups.
- Bug 2303 - Problem evaluating multiple <Class> rules.
- Bug 2419 - Ability to disable TLSRequired on per-user basis (e.g. for
anonymous logins).
- Bug 2438 - Display variable %z not expanded properly.
- Bug 2439 - <Limit CWD> doesn't work.
1.2.10rc1 - Released 28-Apr-2004
---------------------------------
- Bug 2135 - Add ability to handle passphrase-protected server keys. mod_tls
can now properly prompt for passphrases for protected server certificate
keys when the daemon is starting up.
- Bug 2086 - Add limits for PORT, PASV. This means that now one can use
<Limit> to place access controls on the PORT and PASV commands. This
applies to the EPRT and EPSV commands as well.
- Bug 2174 - mod_auth_unix should not act authoritatively. This was causing
problems when using mod_auth_unix.c and the AuthOrder configuration
directive.
- Bug 2098 - Added SetEnv and UnsetEnv configuration directives.
- Bug 2271 - Improper autoconf check for getaddrinfo() on Tru64 UNIX 5.1.
The getaddrinfo symbol is a macro, not a function, on that platform.
- Bug 2255 - RADIUS Service-Type should reflect attribute expectations.
- Added Event API.
- Bug 2272 - Address/port collision check needs to handle DefaultAddress.
- Bug 2072 - Add Controls API.
This API includes a new program, ftpdctl, that is used to communicate
directly with the proftpd daemon via a new core module, mod_ctrls. For
this new functionality to be used, proftpd must be configured using the
added --enable-ctrls option.
- Bug 2015 - Add AND, OR keywords to Allow/DenyUser directives.
The AllowUser, DenyUser, AllowGroup, and DenyGroup directives now take
an optional keyword that indicates what type of expression they are:
AND, OR, or regex. By default, AllowUser and DenyUser are OR expressions,
and AllowGroup and DenyGroup are AND expressions. For example:
AllowUser regex ^ftp
DenyUser AND dave,bob
AllowGroup OR web,doc
These demonstrate that the optional keyword modifier must be the first
parameter in the configuration directive.
- Bug 2046 - Change RFNR and RNTO logging class to WRITE. This means that
ExtendedLogs that use the WRITE logging class will now include the
RNFR and RNTO commands.
- Mac OS X 10.3 portability fixes.
- Bug 2274 - Default server only binds to one IP address of host if
the --enable-ipv6 configure option is used. ProFTPD will now properly
bind to all addresses for the default "server config" server.
- Bug 2048 - Add ability to get configuration file values from environment.
For example, you can now have the following in your proftpd.conf:
DefaultAddress %{env:PR_DEFAULT_ADDR}
which indicates to ProFTPD's configuration parser to get the value of
the PR_DEFAULT_ADDR environment variable, and substitute it in, e.g.:
PR_DEFAULT_ADDR=1.2.3.4 ./proftpd ...
If the indicated environment variable is not present, the value is
substituted with the empty string.
- Bug 1635 - Older systems' chown(1) does not support -h option. The solution
is to prevent this error from stopping the 'make install' process, as it
is a harmless error on such systems.
- Bug 2290 - gmtime() static storage may be overwritten by modules.
- Bug 2288 - ServerFQDN set to 255.255.255.255 and not hostname.
- Added mod_quotatab to the contrib area.
- Bug 2300 - poll() returns 1 and read returns 0, resulting in an infinite
loop. The actual bug was caused by a goto that was being inappropriately
used; a return value was not being checked to see if it was an error value.
- Bug 2305 - Compile Problems since > 1.2.9
Fix the build under Solaris - ftpdctl needs to be linked against libsocket
and libnsl.
- Bug 2267 - Broken IP subnet matching. Added new ACL parsing/matching code.
- Bug 2307 - MySQL 4.1.1 API change causes mod_sql_mysql compilation failure.
- Bug 2319 - Build scripts have owner-only execute permission. This was
causing problems whenever a user other than the owner of the files
attempted to build proftpd.
- Bug 2320 - autoconf check for socklen_t doesn't work on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE.
The fix is to include <sys/types.h>, if present, sooner in the check.
- Bug 1925 - Clean up of Class code. The Class and Classes directives are
now deprecated. See README.classes for more details.
- Bug 2295 - mod_tls returns multiline response to AUTH commands.
- Bug 2322 - NLST -a returns listing formatted for LIST -a. RFC959 does not
explicitly allow dash-style options for LIST or NLST, although many clients
attempt to use them. De facto FTP server behaviors handle options for LIST;
options for NLST will be explicitly rejected.
- Bug 2315 - Overlapping virtual server causes error. If a <VirtualHost>
was configured to handle the same IP address and port as the "server config"
server, the wrong server configuration was being removed.
- Bug 2324 - Directories whose names contain whitespace are inaccessible.
- Bug 2306 - ftpcount output should handle case of no users. When no clients
are connected, ftpcount now displays "0 users".
- Bug 2337 - TLSRenegotiate parameters not processed correctly.
- Bug 2340 - Problem with parallel builds. Proper dependencies added when
building ftpwho and ftptop.
- Bug 2327 - SQLNegativeCache causes unnecessary errors in server logging.
- Bug 2237 - HiddenStores does not check for existing file in edge case.
- Bug 2171 - Add delete options to ftpasswd. The ftpasswd script now
supports the --delete-user and --delete-group options.
- Bug 2105 - Remove Authoritative directives. The AuthPAMAuthoritative
directive, and the "*" syntax of SQLAuthenticate, have been deprecated.
- Bug 1696 - Include directive should support directories. The Include
directive now functions just like Apache's Include directive, including
handling glob characters.
- Bug 2311 - MaxClients counts unauthenticated users. According to the
documentation, the MaxClients configuration directive should only count
authenticated clients.
- Bug 2339 - STAT command doesn't follow RFC959. Previously, ProFTPD did
not support use of the STAT command during file transfers. This
functionality is now implemented. Sites wishing to prevent this can
limit use of the STAT command by using <Limit STAT>.
- Bug 2257 - Add SITE SYMLINK command to mod_site. Rather than adding
this command to the mod_site module, a new module, mod_site_misc, has
been added to the contrib area. The mod_site_misc module implements
SITE SYMLINK, and a few other SITE commands. See contrib/mod_site_misc.html
for details.
- Bug 2355 - Send error message to client when 'TLSRequired on' is in effect.
Previously, if SSL/TLS was configured to be required for both control
and data channels, if the client did not perform the SSL/TLS handshake for
a data transfer, the connection would hang. Now, an error message is sent
to the client if no handshake is done.
- Bug 2353 - REST doesn't handle offsets greater than 2 GB.
- Bug 2357 - ftptop should use COLS for determining display width.
- Bug 2321 - FTP permission checks inconsistent for DELE and RMD/XRMD when
symlink is in directory path. This bug affected the RNFR command as well.
- Bug 2361 - Second USER command causes problems with chrooted session.
- Bug 2363 - ABOR response RFC 959 compliance. The 226 response was being
sent before closing the data connection; RFC 959 implies that the data
connection is closed first.
- Bug 2369 - EPSV should not send network address when MasqueradeAddress is
used. RFC 2428 does not address the case where a server may wish to
return an address in the EPSV response that differs from the control
connection address, as is done in a PASV response for forwarding devices
(e.g. NAT, firewall). Until the proper behavior can be determined,
do not honor MasqueradeAddress for EPSV.
- Bug 2367 - LIST *.* strange behaviour. The builtin listing mechanism
was inadvertently recursing into globbed directories when recursion was
not actually requested.
- Bug 2371 - ftpasswd should have option to compare password against value
in passwd file. ftpasswd now supports a --not-previous-password option.
- Added a `howto' directory under `doc/', for mini-HOWTOs.
- Bug 2221 - proftpd on hp-ux 11.22. The default data type of socklen_t
on HP-UX 11 is problematic; many system calls expect an int, and the
default type is a size_t. This mismatch causes problems for 64-bit
builds.
- Bug 2385 - Renames fail with error "Invalid cross-device link".
- Bug 2383 - mod_ctrls.c: ctrls_listen(): Invalid size in bind() argument.
The size of struct sockaddr_un is not consistent across platforms.
- Bug 2387 - PRIVS_USER macro should set effective GID to user's primary GID.
- Added a `modules/' directory under `doc/', for core module documentation.
Currently there are HTML docs for mod_auth_file, mod_cap, and mod_ctrls.
- Bug 2317 - Wrong order of privs calls on HP generates "unable to setregid()"
error.
1.2.9 - Released 31-Oct-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 2181 - The prior fix for Bug#2181, handling of the PORT command when the
--enable-ipv6 configure option is used, was not quite correct. A problem
still existed when an IPv4 client used the PORT command when talking to
an IPv4-only vhost (as opposed to an IPv4 and IPv6 vhost). Now PORT is
properly handled in all cases.
- Bug 2204 - On systems that use the gethostbyname2() function, IPv4 clients
were not being properly resolved to their DNS names.
- Bug 2242 - proftpd reread included additional config as user nobody instead
of root. The bug was caused by configuration directive handlers
(specifically, SyslogFacility and SystemLog) that would incorrectly change
the process privileges; depending on the order of configuration in
proftpd.conf, some Included files might not be parseable due to permissions
problems.
- Bug 2197 - The RPM .spec has been updated for easy RPM builds from CVS
snapshots.
- Check for excessive length of symlink directory listing entries (submitted
by Michael Hendrickx <michael@scanit.be>)
- Two memory leaks, seen mostly during recursive directory listings, have
been fixed.
1.2.9rc3 - Released 15-Oct-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 2167 - getnameinfo() on FreeBSD doesn't support IP address lookups.
- Bug 2176 - getnameinfo() error on Cygwin during startup.
The sa_family member of the address was not being properly initialized
in some instances.
- Bug 2179 - ROOT_UID instead of ROOT_GID used in setegid() call.
This affects Cygwin installations.
- Fixed ASCII file remote exploit discovered by X-Force at ISS:
http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/alerts/id/154
- Bug 2181 - IPv4 active transfers don't work when using --enable-ipv6.
IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses were not being properly compared for active
data transfers.
- Bug 2200 - Correct segfaults with xlate_ascii_write() on IRIX.
- Bug 2024 - DefaultServer not functioning properly.
The addition of the Bindings API in 1.2.8rc1 inadvertently caused the
DefaultServer directive to not be properly honored in some configurations.
- Bug 2183 - Directory configuration lookups broken in 1.2.9rc2 (same as
Bug 2165).
- Bug 2191 - Segfault in mod_sql_mysql when using 'Backend' SQLAuthType.
This happens only with MySQL 4.1. In MySQL 4.1, the way in which MySQL
handles its passwords changed, and mod_sql_mysql was using the new
interface incorrectly.
- Bug 2202 - AllowLogSymlinks check is flawed.
Calling open(2) on a path that is a symlink will follow that symlink;
the AllowLogSymlink check assumed that open() did not follow the symlink.
The fix is to use the O_NOFOLLOW flag when opening log file paths. However,
this flag does not exist on Solaris machines, and so there still exists
a race condition on Solaris when checking that a log path is not a symlink.
- Bug 2188 - Wildcard sockets not properly handled on FreeBSD.
Similar to bugs 2167, the sin_len/sin6_len members of socket structures
were not being properly set for wildcard sockets.
- Bug 2204 - Reverse DNS lookups not happening properly on connected clients
on FreeBSD. The gethostbyname2() function needs to be used on FreeBSD.
- Bug 2222 - Overlapping vhosts should warn instead of die.
Prior to 1.2.9rc1, it was possible to have multiple vhosts configured that
resolved to the same IP address/port combination. This typically occurs
when DNS names are used, and different DNS names resolve to the same IP
address. In 1.2.9rc1, these collisions are scanned for, and such collisions
are treated as a fatal error. With this change, such colliding vhosts
are handled similar to vhosts that have unresolvable names: they are
logged, then removed from the in-memory list of vhosts.
1.2.9rc2 - Released 11-Sep-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 2051 - freebytes in TransferRate does not work properly.
- Bug 2043 - Proftpd converts LF to CRLF on PUT on Cygwin. This turned out
to be caused by the Cygwin layer. The fix was to use the Cygwin-specific
O_BINARY open() flag when opening binary files on Cygwin.
- Bug 1804 - Permit selection of additional contrib modules when building
the RPM
- Bug 2074 - MaxStoreFileSize restriction capabilities ignored. This bug
was affecting MaxRetrieveFileSize as well.
- Bug 2075 - LIST / fails under Cygwin. This was due to the addition of
an additional path separator character; Cygwin treats paths that start
with "//" differently than paths that start with "/".
- Bug 2076 - The --enable-transfer-buffer-size configure option doesn't work
properly. It was overriding the --enable-buffer-size option, rather than
the corresponding tunable buffer size.
- Bug 2069 - Long MKD path causes truncated server response.
- Fixed handling of %N/%y in DisplayConnect files.
- Bug 2083 - "550 Access denied" on group permission with AuthGroupFile. This
was caused by a strictly linear search in the AuthGroupFile from the
current file pointer to end of file, which (depending on the ordering of
entries in the file) might have skipped necessary group entries.
- Bug 2088 - proftpd -t segfault. A very specific configuration would cause
a segfault in the configuration parser: if the first sub-context in a given
context (e.g. a <Limit> context within a <Directory> context) was empty,
the removal of that empty context from the internal structures by the
parser would inadvertently trigger a segfault later. This has been
fixed by using a better memory pool, with a longer lifetime, for allocating
the internal configuration structures.
- Bug 2090 - mod_rewrite doesn't compile on Solaris 8. The FIONREAD macro
was undefined, due to a strange necessity in the Solaris system headers
for a missing flag.
- Bug 2100 - Invalid domain in <VirtualHost> tag causes segmentation fault.
- Fixed handling of mod_tls' TLSCertificateChainFile directive.
- Bug 2103 - AuthAliasOnly in server context causes hang.
- Bug 2110 - Segfault if gethostname(2) returns NULL.
- Bug 2113 - mod_sql default uses mysql keyword "password". The default
has been changed to "passwd".
- Bug 2115 - ftptop depends on snprintf but doesn't link in lib/libsupp.a
on snprintf-less platforms
- Corrected handling of mod_tls' TLSCACertificateFile and TLSCACertificatePath
directives so that they are properly allowed in <VirtualHost> and <Global>
contexts.
- Bug 2119 - FEAT response format does not conform to RFC2389. Extraneous
leading whitespace removed.
- Fixed file descriptor leaks that occur if mod_tls encounters errors when
handling CA certificate files.
- Bug 2118 - mod_sql's %F doesn't work for DELE command; %f is inconsistent.
mod_sql's handling of cookies is now updated to match mod_log.
- Bug 1711 - IPv6 support. Support for EPRT and EPSV added. To enable IPv6
support, use the new --enable-ipv6 configure option.
- Bug 2130 - %y in DisplayLogin is not updated correctly.
- Bug 2137 - NLST and IgnoreHidden causes segfault.
- Bug 2142 - sstrncpy() not available to lib/vsnprintf.c. sstrncpy() is now
implemented in the support library (libsupp.a).
- Bug 2144 - Rework autoconf handling of --enable-sia option.
- Bug 2147 - Segmentation fault processing file in ASCII mode.
- Fixed mod_ifsession's handling of multiple configuration sets.
- Bug 2148 - Enforce PR_TUNABLE_LOGIN_MAX.
- Bug 2141 - Glob Allow/Deny parameters cause extraneous log messages when
comparing addresses.
- Bug 1804 - RPM spec file improvements
The spec file now has xinetd support, builds under newer version of RPM,
installs standalone support with the main proftpd RPM, and accepts --with
mod_modname arguments during the build process.
- Bug 2127 - Entry in the file section
The RPM spec's %files section now honors the install prefix.
- Bug 2108 - IgnoreHidden should not hide dotfiles
Dotfiles are now displayed when the -a argument is supplied, even when the
IgnoreHidden directive is enabled. To replicate the old behavior of hiding
dotfiles no matter what, use either of the following directives:
ListOptions "" strict
HideFiles ^\..*
- Bug 2146 - DNS names not handled properly when --enable-ipv6 is used
DNS names with both A and AAAA records were not being properly handled;
listening sockets for both the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses were not being
established.
- Bug 2007 - autoconf header detection problem.
On FreeBSD and other platforms, changes in autoconf require that headers
be included in the proper order during configure's check.
- Bug 2153 - Small error in handling PR_AUTH_RFC2228 authentication code
- Bug 2154 - SQL query loses shell information.
An index was not being properly incremented in some cases when retrieving
user information.
- Bug 2161 - Duplicate autoconf check for sia.h.
- Bug 2122 - EAGAIN on Solaris can cause an infinite loop.
Under certain conditions, when reading from a descriptor on Solaris,
EAGAIN can be returned, which proftpd did not handle properly.
1.2.9rc1 - Released 15-May-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 1828 - mod_sql can only find mysql.sock if in /tmp. This was caused
by the fact that mod_sql_mysql did not load/read the MySQL .cnf
configuration files. Now, when starting, mod_sql_mysql will read .cnf
files for "client" sections.
- Bug 1960 - Add removed file size by DELE command to xferlog.
- Bug 1967 - Add display of uptime to ftpwho, ftptop.
- Added AnonRejectPasswords directive.
- Added ftpshut -R command-line option, for deleting the ftpshut shutdown
file.
- Bug 1972 - %T not correctly shows time at performance of a command "rename".
This was due to improper use of uninitialized data.
- Bug 1794 - Scoreboard format changes.
- Bug 1979 - Add TLSTimeoutHandshake directive. This adds a directive to
configure a timer when SSL/TLS handshakes are occurring, to prevent
a malicious client from attempting to DOS a TLS-enabled server. The default
timeout is 5 minutes.
- Bug 1869 - Add option "-S/--server" to ftpcount, ftptop, ftpwho. This
option can be used to specify a ServerName; the utilities will then
display information for that specific server.
- Bug 1980 - Login with incorrect password possible when using mod_radius.
This was caused by the retaining of the OK state when a user authenticated
via RADIUS, but the login process later fails (e.g. home directory
inaccessible or something similar); subsequent logging in as a different
user would succeed because the OK flag was not cleared.
- Added contrib module mod_ifsession-0.9rc6.
- Bug 1932 - Make Max* checks a PASS POST_CMD handler. One of the consequences
of this change is that the Max* limits will always be enforced after the
PASS command has been sent, not after the USER command (as used to be done).
Also, MaxHostsPerUser and MaxClientsPerUser limits will be determined using
the locally resolved username, not using any user aliases.
- ProFTPD now checks for IP address/port collisions in the configuration
file, and will refuse to start unless all configured server contexts
have unique IP address/port combinations.
- Bug 1969 - Add scoreboard-scrubbing timer. The scoreboard will be scanned
now every 30 seconds for entries with invalid PIDs; this timer can be
adjusted using the PR_TUNABLE_SCOREBOARD_SCRUB_TIMER #define.
- Bug 1921 - Socket-level performance tweaks. This change deprecates the
tcpReceiveWindow and tcpSendWindow configuration directives, replacing
them with a single SocketOptions configuration directive. This new
directive can be used to tune the TCP send and receive window sizes as well
as the TCP max segment size. A new configure option,
--enable-transfer-buffer-size, is also added, to be used for tuning the
size of internal buffers used for file transfers. Using this option to
configure an 8K buffer size often results in higher transfer speeds.
- Bug 1849 - Compile can have trouble finding mysql.h. The MySQL backend
module was assuming that mysql.h would be found in a directory named
"mysql"; for some distributions this is not the case. Similarly for
the Postgres backend module and the libpq-fe.h file. Users may need to
alter the --with-includes configure option used when building mod_sql.
- Bug 1915 - Unsafe pointer usage in scoreboard file format.
- Bug 1983 - Filenames beginning with '#' fail to upload/download.
- Bug 1985 - mod_rewrite fails to build on platforms without flock().
- Bug 1730 - mod_sql_mysql logging of long transfers fails. This turned out
to be caused by the default MySQL timeouts on non-interactive sessions
(8 hours). The fix involves marking mod_sql_mysql sessions as interactive;
this means that users may use the 'interactive-timeout' option in their
.cnf files to override the default interactive session timeout (also 8 hours).
- Bug 1989 - SQLLog '*' doesn't match any commands.
- Bug 1986 - mod_rewrite backreferences not zero-based (use $1 not $0?). The
bug here turned out to be an off-by-one offset; mod_rewrite was starting
at 1 when examining matched groups, rather than 0. Most of the time $0 will
not be what is desired, however, for $0 refers to the original string being
matched.
- Bug 1987 - mod_rewrite seems not to handle more than one backreference.
- By default, mod_tls will now turn manually turn RSA blinding on, when
OpenSSL older than 0.9.7b is used, in order to thwart certain timing attacks
possible against RSA operations. The following URL contains more information:
http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20030317.txt
- Bug 1995 - incorrect handling of curses/ncurses header and libraries in
ftptop
- New mod_radius directives: RadiusGroupInfo, RadiusVendor. mod_radius
now looks for custom response information in Vendor-Specific Attributes
(VSAs) rather than the normal RADIUS attributes; VSAs are more flexible.
- Fixed a bug with mod_tls' use of SSL_shutdown(), to prevent it from hanging
when interacting with some buggy FTPS clients (e.g FlashFXP, SmartFTP)
- Bug 1935 - mod_ls memory leak. When a recursive directory listing is
requested (and allowed), proftpd would use its memory pool system,
allocating memory for every file to be listed. For large/deep directory
structures, this memory usage could grow quite large. And, due to the
way in which the underlying memory allocator (the C library, usually)
works, that memory is never really released back to the operating system.
This means that tools like ps and top reporting a never-shrinking memory
footprint for the process. To help alleviate this, proftpd has been
altered to use malloc/realloc when providing recursive directory listings,
making the memory footprint a little smaller. The caching behavior of
the underlying memory allocator cannot be changed, though.
- Bug 1997 - UnixWare 7.1.3 & port 20.
- Bug 1998 - Add ListOptions for setting limits on -R listings. New
keywords have been added to the ListOptions directive: maxdepth, maxdirs,
and maxfiles.
- Bug 2011 - No "FTP session closed." msgs written to logfile. This affected
only inetd-run servers.
- Added two new configure options, --disable-curses and --disable-ncurses.
By default, ftptop will use ncurses if available, then curses (if available).
In some cases, both curses and ncurses may be present, and yet the admin
would prefer ftptop to use curses. Using the above options, one can
disable ftptop's use of ncurses or curses, as needed.
- Bug 2016 - man pages should be autogenerated to reflect the --prefix used.
- Bug 2018 - Incorrect caching of TransferRate values.
- Bug 1813 - configure code: mistake in BSD sendfile semantic detection.
- Bug 2019 - proftpd support for Solaris 8/9 native sendfile
- Bug 2002 - Per-<Directory> PathAllowFilter/PathDenyFilter.
- Added RootRevoke directive.
- Bug 2021 - Inetd mode and scoreboard format changes.
- Bug 1532 - Human readable disk free cookie. Display* files can now make
use of a %f magic cookie for displaying the available disk space with
units (i.e. KB, MB, GB, etc). This compliments the currently available
%F cookie, used to display the number of bytes of available space (without
units).
- Bug 2003 - mod_auth.c does not compile for cygwin on W2K.
- Bug 2029 - Rewrite rule may execute more than once if multiple
RewriteConditions exist. This turned out to be caused by mod_rewrite's
merging down of its directives, and the way in which multiple occurrences
of directives are handled. Now, even for merged-down mod_rewrite directives,
a given RewriteRule will only be processed once.
- Fixed minor fd leak where listening socket descriptors were not being
properly closed in a session process, when the session is first starting.
- Cygwin compilation/portability fixes.
- Fixed bug where AllowForeignAddress was not properly blocking "bounce"
attacks in some cases. Patch contributed by Patrick Hardy <kaber@trash.net>.
- Bug 2032 - AuthOrder not working when first option is mod_auth_file.c. This
was caused by mod_auth_file's returning of an ERROR condition, rather than
DECLINED, when the module could not obtain the user's encrypted password
for verification.
- Bug 2047 - 1024 or more chars in .ftpaccess causes lockup. Certain conditions
allowed for parsing of configuration files to enter an infinite loop.
- Bug 2031 - Add support for flags for RewriteCondition, RewriteRule
(a la Apache's mod_rewrite). mod_rewrite now supports various tests that
can be used in RewriteConditions, the NC and OR flags for RewriteConditions,
and the NC and L flags for RewriteRules.
- Bug 1977 - Add %u variable support in configuration file. With this feature,
one can configure DefaultRoot paths such as /home/%u/public_ftp, and the
%u variable will be expanded to the logged in user name.
1.2.8 - Released 04-Mar-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 1863 - Unable to build under UnixWare 7
- Bug 1943 - Unable to install on FreeBSD 5.0. FreeBSD 5.0's header files
have been rewritten, and glibc's glob.h collided with the new files. The
fix was simply to use size_t, rather than trying to determine and use
__size_t (glob.h was intended to be used during library compilation, not
during application compilation).
- Bug 1950 - OSX setgrent(3) returns int, causing compiler warning. Unlike
most other Unix flavours (but like FreeBSD), OSX's setgrent(3) returns
int, rather than void. A configure check was written to test for this.
- Bug 1949 - Compiler warns of 'long double' usage on OSX. Typecasts have
been added to quell some warnings, and an autoconf check added for compiler
support for -Wno-long-double to quell others.
- Bug 1952 - Umask Bug: Server Not Honoring VirtualHost Umask. This was
a statcache caching effect bug.
- Bug 1916 - Transfers hang with strange transfertime in logfile. This
appears to have been due to use of an uninitialized value.
- Bug 1948 - mod_xfer relinquishes privs before chmod takes place. In
places where UserOwner is used to "give away" files, the chmod() attempt
that follows the chown() (used to preserve permissions sometimes altered
by the operating system's chown(2) call) did not use root privs, and thus
the client did not have permission to write the file.
- Added FTPS FEAT responses, as per Section 5 of the FTPS Draft.
- Bug 1956 - Upload transfer rate broken. The wrong variable was being used.
- Bug 1941 - SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 issues. Fixing this bug required adding
more autoconf portability checks.
- Bug 1958 - ftpwho -o oneline has newlines when client is idle.
- Bug 1908 - ExtendedLog to work properly again in <Anonymous> context.
- Bug 1966 - SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 and inetd.
- Bug 1953 - STAT -R does not work. There were some variable initialization
issues in the handling of options for the STAT command.
- Bug 1970 - Transfer time wraps around and causes problems with transfer
speed calculation. This was a reporting problem, mostly. An internal
variable was storing time in microseconds; now using milliseconds.
- Bug 1937 - Transfer hangs when using TransferRate limits on a resumed
download. This turned out to be a misuse of the resumed file position
when calculating the TransferRate.
- Bug 1964 - When uploading to an NFS mounted file system in passive mode
read() get EAGAIN and closes connection. This turned out to be caused
by control messages in the STREAMS device (and thus relevant only to
systems that use STREAMS).
- Portability fixes for FreeBSD-5.0.
- Bug 1976 - Login hangs, spawned process runs in endless loop in mod_auth.
This was caused by a combination of "AuthAliasOnly on" and UserAlias
directives in which the alias and the username were identical. Different
alias and username in a UserAlias directive is now required.
1.2.8rc2 - Released 29-Jan-2003
---------------------------------
- Bug 1894 - Double chdir into self-referencing symlink fails with
"No such file or directory". The errno value has been changed from
ENOENT to ELOOP.
- Bug 1272 - Requested Addition: DenyFilter by User or DenyFilter by Directory.
AllowFilter and DenyFilter are now extended to <Directory> and .ftpaccess
contexts.
- Bug 1671 - new directive SQLLogFile.
- mod_linuxprivs has been renamed to mod_cap and is now built into ProFTPD
by default if the host OS (Linux) supports it. autoconf detection code
based on a submission by Mihai RUSU <dizzy@roedu.net>. The mod_cap
directives are CapabilitiesEngine and CapabilitiesSet.
- Bug 1893 - Apple likes to move things. PAM support works on OS X again.
Submitted by: thesin@users.sourceforge.net (Justin F. Hallett)
- Bug 1826 - Makefiles are a bit icky
- Bug 1904 - Tru64 UNIX 4.0D and sstrncpy()
- Bug 1891 - SGI syslog isn't being written to. Turns out that /dev/log on
SGI is a STREAMS device, just as for Solaris. The fix for this bug works
for IRIX6; earlier versions of IRIX may still see this bug.
- Bug 1919 - <Directory> section already configured for $dir needs
clarification. This has been resolved by adding a debug statement (level 2)
to the <Directory> handler that reports on the given/resolved paths used.
- Bug 1910 - ProFTPD hangs on SIGHUP. This was triggered by mixing stdio
and regular I/O library calls related to password and group entries.
- Add -Wundef and -Wfloat-equal to CFLAGS (Suggested by Steve Grubb
<linux_4ever@yahoo.com>)
- Fixed broken tcpReceiveWindow and tcpSendWindow configuration directives.
The setsockopt(2) function was being called at the wrong time during the
establishment of the data connection.
- %f for DELE commands was not being properly expanded.
- Bug 1923 - %N magic cookie reports incorrectly. This was an off-by-one
bug.
- %L was reporting the remote IP address, rather than the local IP address.
- Bug 1922 - Server allows RNTO an existing file even with AllowOverwrite
turned off. Now, RNTOs to existing files are denied unless AllowOverwrite
is on.
- ftptop now displays transfer rates in it's "transfer speed" display mode.
Use the 't' key to toggle between ftptop display modes.
- Bug 1926 - AuthOrder doesn't work
- Bug 1918 - AuthUserFile not works normally.
- Bug 1241 - Additional functionality: HomedirOnDemand. This has been added
as a new configuration directive, CreateHome.
- Bug 1734 - Cygwin - Unable to set uid
- Bug 1938 - upload to root directory fails. This was caused by caching
effects.
- Bug 1939 - RLimitMemory seems broken. The problem turned out to be bad
handling of the case where sizes were used without specifying units.
- Bug 1911 - NLST is not being Limited in DIRS. The issue was that directory
paths were not being properly expanded, for purposes of looking up <Limit>s,
in the handling of NLST.
1.2.8rc1 - Released 28-Dec-2002
---------------------------------
- Bug 1597 - Problems with HP-UX 10/11 trusted systems, mod_pam, and mod_unixpw.
- Bug 1482 - Add new %U meta to LogFormat, for logging original username.
- Bug 1683 - Handling of VirtualHosts on startup. Now, rather than dying
when unable to resolve a <VirtualHost> DNS hostname when starting up, the
daemon will log the error, and skip the bad <VirtualHost>.
- Bug 1825 - AUTH macro namespace cleanup. A "PR_" prefix has been added to
the AUTH_* macros, to help prevent namespace collisions. This means that
some third-party auth modules may need to be updated.
- Bug 1806 - Add RFC2389 support.
- Bug 1833 - Add ability to have add'l module initialization callback.
- Bug 1743 - No magic cookie for number of files transfered. New cookies
added for Display* files: "%i" for total number of files uploaded (read "in")
during a session, "%o" for total number of files download (written "out")
during a session, and "%t" for total number of files transferred (both
uploaded and downloaded).
- Bug 1653 - Complete the FS API abstraction implementation. The Developer
Guide will have the complete details on using this API.
- Bug 1712 - TLS support. mod_tls-2.0.5 has been added to the distribution.
Many, many thanks to Peter Runestig for his work on this, and for maintaining
his code through so many versions of ProFTPD.
- Bug 1788 - Add ability to configure auth module checking order. This is
now configurable via the new AuthOrder directive.
- Bug 1205 - Add debug option to SystemLog. Actually, this feature request
has been resolved by adding a new DebugLevel configuration directive, so
that a debugging verbosity can be set in the configuration file as well
as on the command line.
- Added mod_rewrite to distribution.
- Bug 1403 - per-server system logs via ServerLog directive.
- Bug 1605 - MKD and RMD do not log filepaths with %f or %F option in
ExtendedLog.
- Removing the RateRead* and RateWrite* configuration directives, and replacing
them with a single new directive, TransferRate.
- Bug 1789 - Add ability to block recursive directory listings. The
LsDefaultOptions configuration directive has been deprecated in favor of
the more feature-rich ListOptions directive.
- Added Bindings API
- Bug 1515 - Enable mod_log to log into default log / syslog. The ExtendedLog
directive can now take a "path" of the form: "syslog:level", where the
"syslog:" prefix tells mod_log to log that ExtendedLog data via syslog,
and the "level" informs mod_log of which syslog level to use.
- AIX sendfile support. Thanks to Andy Igoshin <ai@vsu.ru> for the patch.
- 1858 - move "session closed" logging from graceful quit to child exit
sequence. This allows for better log reporting, with respect to sessions
ended through means such as catastrophic death of client, or segfaults.
- Added --enable-devel configure option, for enabling code of interest to
developers
- Bug 1507 - regex pattern matching in [Allow/Deny][User/Group]. This has
been implemented by adding a "regex" optional parameter to the AllowGroup,
DenyGroup, AllowUser, and DenyUser directives. The documentation will
be adjusted accordingly.
- Bug 1882 - SITE chmod 777 file<space>name. The patch for this works
for filename parameters to the SITE CHGRP command as well.
- Bug 1881 - Bug in Function MaxClients. This was caused by an off-by-one
bug in the handling of non-anonymous settings.
- Bug 1886 - Ftpwho uses too many lines when authenticating.
- Bug 1875 - same radius packet id for start- and stop-accounting record.
- Bug 1883 - socklen_t patch. Thanks to Andy Igoshin <ai@vsu.ru> for the
patch.
- Bug 1885 - -q/--quiet option for use with the -n/--nodaemon flag. Useful
for running proftpd from inittab or with daemontools.
- Bug 1677 - Integrate ProFTPD with C2/SIA on Tru64 Unix. The --enable-sia
configure option has been added.
- Bug 1837 - Add module specifically for handling Auth*Files, providing
finer-grained control. The new mod_auth_file module is compiled in by
default, and can be disabled using the --disable-auth-file configure option.
For consistency, mod_unixpw.c has been renamed to mod_auth_unix (and now
has a --disable-auth-unix configure option), and mod_pam.c has been renamed
to mod_auth_pam.c (with an explicit --enable-auth-pam configure option).
- Bug 1900 - ftpwho's output on uploads. ftpwho now reports "n/a" rather than
"0%" on uploads, for the server does not know how large of a file is being
uploaded in advance, and cannot determine a "percentage done" value.
- Bug 1888 - Increase mod_linuxprivs configurability. Two new directives,
LinuxPrivsEngine and LinuxPrivsCapabilities, are added.
- Bug 1905 - AIX needs "config.h" included before *anything* else.
- Bug 1903 - ftpwho depends on snprintf but doesn't link in lib/libsupp.a
Primarily of issue under Solaris 2.5 and Tru64 4.0D.
- Bug 1863 - Unable to build under UnixWare 7
- Bug 1906 - Add description strings to AC_DEFINE
1.2.7 - Released 05-Dec-2002
----------------------------
- Bug 1840 - Problem with syslog default destination on HP-UX. HPUX uses
a default device of /dev/log.un rather than /dev/log.
- Bug 1844 - DisplayLogin %y macro is off by 1. Consequence of scoreboarding
code changes.
- Bug 1838 - Since 1.2.6: in add_useralias() setting flag CF_MERGEDOWN breaks
aliased anonymous functionality. The fix was to set the CF_MERGEDOWN flag
only if the UserAlias directive is not being used in the <Anonymous>
context.
- Bug 1812 - Double logging lines for ExtendedLog. No need to merge this
particular directive down.
- Bug 1848 - undefined reference to `halfdelay'. curses does not seem to
provide this function, as ncurses does. The patch works around this by
using halfdelay() if linking against ncurses, and using nodelay() and sleep()
if linking against curses.
- Bug 1839 - undefined reference to `get_fs_size'. Expand BSD
statfs()/statvfs() support beyond FreeBSD.
- Bug 1680 - Error in startup script. Add /usr/local/sbin/ to the included
rc script's $PATH
- Bug 1852 - Proftpd gets signal 11 on "quote site". The mod_site module
was not properly checking the number of parameters for SITE commands.
- Bug 1856 - TimesGMT acts like default is 'off'. The default for this
directive was inadvertently set to "off", rather than the documented default
setting of "on".
- Bug 1853 - SyslogFacility: unable to open syslog. This turned out to be
due to the fact that /dev/log on Solaris (and other platforms?) is a
STREAMS device, which requires open() and putmsg(), rather than connect()
and send().
- 1846 - File overwrites fail. Tracked down by Sergei Rozinov to involve
uninitialized stack data.
- Bug 1861 - 'ftpwho -v -o oneline' print all connections in one line. This
bug appeared in 1.2.7rc3, a consequnce of Bug#1815.
- Bug 1868 - Wrong cmdopts in ftpcount.c.
- Added custom memory scrubber routine to deal with the issue mentioned in
this Bugtraq thread: http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1/298598
1.2.7rc3 - Released 15-Nov-2002
-------------------------------
- Fixed configure script detection and handling of ncurses (HAVE_LIBNCURSES
was not being properly defined).
- Added --enable-scoreboard-buffer-size option to configure script, for
tuning the size of some scoreboard fields (e.g. the full client command
and the current working directory).
- Bug 1287 - Error compile with autoshadow option. AIX does not have
traditional shadow support, and uses other mechanisms. This means that
the --enable-autoshadow and --enable-shadow configure options should not
be used when configuring proftpd for AIX. The configure script has been
updated to detect when these options are used on AIX, and to automatically
disable them.
- Bug 1722 - Can't work magic cookie %F on FreeBSD.
- Make sure session.xfer uses cleared memory so unset structure members
won't contain random values.
- Fixed handling of AuthAliasOnly, broken slightly by Bug#1567.
- Bug 1800 - Proftpd child segfaults when using a PASS without no USER first.
mod_wrap was making a bad assumption about the USER name being available.
This assumption has been corrected.
- Bug 1803 - Check for SIZEOF_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG to determine LFS support
breaks some Linux installations
- Bug 1805 - PAM support under Mac OS X
- Bug 1772 - Docs fixup in RPM spec file
- Bug 1398 - there is no log rotate for /var/log/xferlog
- Bug 1814 - class names are truncated in scoreboard entry
- ftptop can now use either curses or ncurses
- Bug 1818 - proftpd doesn't compile on hpux11
- Bug 1760 - AllowOverwrite not operational.
- Bug 1703 - mod_sql_mysql compile error. This was eventually tracked down
to an overlap between ProFTPD's bundled getopt implementation, and
MySQL's bundled getopt implementation. To prevent this problem, a new
--without-getopt configure option has been added, which tells the ProFTPD
build process to explicitly not use the ProFTPD bundled getopt
implementation.
- Only link ftptop with lib{n,}curses - it isn't needed in any other
binaries
- Bug 1815 - Patch to add class information to ftpwho (with verbose on)
- Bug 1810 - Wrong permissions assigned to uploaded file. This turned out
to be related to the addition of the statcache code, and its interaction
with the UserOwner and GroupOwner configuration directives.
- Bug 1830 - MaxClientsPerHost (small) Bug. Off-by-one error in the handling
of the MaxClientsPerHost directive, introduced by the change in timing of
scoreboard modifications of the new scoreboarding code.
- ftpasswd now exits with different values, depending on the problem cause.
Thanks to Graham Dunn <gdunn@inscriber.com> for these changes.

a result of the fix for Bug 1666.
- Bug 1770 - Forgetting to check for no IP in string.
- Moved the switching to the User/Group for a vhost up in the order, to occur
before any modules' session initialization callback is invoked.
- Bug 1644 - LogFormat local IP and FQDN tags missing. Added %L to LogFormat
meta sequences for logging local server IP address, and %V for
logging local server FQDN.
- Bug 1785 - Bad handling of symlinks. This bug appeared as a consequence
of Bug#1486's fix, which involved caching of struct stats in
order to effect a speed-up of directory listings.
- Bug 1778 - 1.2.7rc1 fails to link on OpenBSD 3.2-current. The ftptop
utility was not properly utilizing the macro detecting the
presence (or absence) of the ncurses library.
- Adding new configure options (see configure --help) for setting some of
the "tunable" values in options.h via the configure command.

- Bug 1664 - Changed mod_sql to decline UID-to-name resolution if a UID
field has been configured to NULL; similarly for GID.

- Bug 1667 - Moved definition of USE_SHADOW, AUTO_SHADOW macros from command
line into config.h, with the other macros.

- Bug 1137 - NLST displayed hidden files
1.2.2rc2 - Released 20-Apr-2001
-------------------------------
The `AllowChmod' directive has been deprecated, and will not work
consistantly. Use <Limit SITE_CHMOD> instead.
- Bug 1112 - Compilation fix for IRIX 6.2.
- Bug 1128 - Fixed possibled Linux sendfile() corruption issue.
- Bug 1093 - Checking for world writable log files and symlinks.
- Bug 1094 - AuthUserFile/AuthGroupFile disallow relative paths.
- Bug 1096 - Case sensitivity issues in config, better checking of
RLimit* directive arguments.
- Bug 1090 - AllowFilter/DenyFilter now logs correctly.
- Bug 1119 - glibc-glob compilation issue on IRIX6.
- Bug 1090 - ExtendedLog should now report ALL events (even errors)
1.2.2rc1 - Released 24-Mar-2001
-------------------------------
- Bug 1085 - Better logging of "User is not a UserAlias" and "Can't find
user."
- Bug 1043 - Fixed possible infinite loop in bandwidth throttling code.
- New RLimit* directives used to control resource usage on support platforms.
- Bug 1075 - Sub-contexts (<Directory>, etc) weren't being fully copied from
<Global> to vhosts.
- Bug 1049 - New User/Groups weren't being seen after startup w/out a SIGHUP.
- Bug 1066 - new GNU glob() and friends, which properly limits recursion and
avoids DoS issues. Built-in glob support is now always compiled in to
proftpd regardless of libc support on build platform.
- New directive "MasqueradeAddress", used to emit a "fake" (non-interface) IP
in server ident, magic cookies and PASV commands. Useful for firewalled or
NAT'd networks that are not FTP aware.
- Bug 1044 - New directive "AccessDenyMsg", works just like AccessAllowMsg,
but does the obvious.
- Bug 1055 - Not really a bug, but still .. ftpwho/ftpcount now attempt to
scan proftpd.conf looking for ScoreboardPath, if all else fails
- Bug 1042 - <Directory /> arbitrarily not matching.
1.2.1 - Released 01-Mar-2001
----------------------------
- A relatively major issue was discovered with session.groups which may cause
any group-expressions inside of <Limit> (DenyGroup, etc) to malfunction.
This is the primary reason for the 1.2.1 release.
- Default CFLAGS changed from "-g3 -O6" to "-O2" because it is reported
that -O6 is highly experimental, and including debugging really isn't all
the useful, as someone _really_ interested in debugging can edit Make.rules.
- Defining classes without an explicit "Classes On" now generates a log
warning.
- New mod_sql and mod_ldap from their respective maintainers.
1.2.0-final - Released 26-Feb-2001
----------------------------------
- Numerous additional bug fixes from Bugzilla. See http://bugs.proftpd.org
for more info.
- New and updated README.* and INSTALL.
- initgroups() support has been removed, it will be re-added in 1.3 after we
have proper modular support in authentication modules.
- mod_sql.c, mod_sql_mysql.c and mod_sql_postgres.c back in, with a new
maintainer (replacements for mod_sqlpw and friends).
- instead of using kill(pid,SIGCONT) to determine if scoreboard pids are
correct, proftpd now uses kill(pid,0) which should be a lot lighter on
heavy-load systems. Thanks to Rob Schulhof <rrs@digisle.net> for pointing
out that kill(pid,0) is both valid AND useful. ;) Also removed some
completely useless and redundant /proc stat code which did the same thing
as kill(pid,0) on linux systems.
- logging to file (via SystemLog) is now done with a single write instead of
two in order to be atomic.
1.2.0rc3 - Released: 05-Feb-2001
--------------------------------
- mod_sqlpw.c, mod_mysql.c and mod_pgsql.c have been REMOVED from the
distribution. They are currently unmaintained and have numerous bugs.
If any kind soul <grin> is interested in maintaining them, they may be
brought back into a future version of proftpd.
- sendfile now defaults to off, use --enable-sendfile at configure
time to enable. Additionally, sendfile is probably fixed.
- initgroups/getgroups new defaults to off, use --enable-initgroups at
configure time to enable (mainly useful for large systems). Be careful,
though, as initgroups/getgroups breaks module handling and will not work
in conjunction with other third-party modules (mod_sqlpw, etc).
- Passive FTP works properly now (was broken in RC2).
- Compilation problems fixed on some obscure platforms.
- PAM authentication finally works again on Solaris (due to an annoying bug in
Solaris).

----------------------------------
- sendfile() handles errors and non-optimal conditions The Right Way(tm).
- install_group works right in warped cases of having more than one GID 0
