+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Note that the C scripting stuff and encryption stuff is still
  considered BETA. Its probably pretty secure, but requires peer
  review.

Version 0.10.44:

* Installation of scripts is now in ${prefix}/etc and not /etc.

* Shadow password support fixed on non-pam platforms.

* Bug fixes.

* Compressions and encryption in dlls.

Version 0.10.43:

* Support for reading passwords from stdin for non-interactive
    usage (--read-password-from-stdin).

* Support for test logins for non-interactive usage (--test-login).

* secure-mcserv can now use central password/authentication server.
    This gives mirrordir kerboros-like authentication.

* Attempt at fixing eating CPU bug.

* Support for tcpwrappers - /etc/hosts.allow.

Version 0.10.41:

* Support for glob expressions: you can now do, for example,
    copydir 'ftp://some.where/pub/*/*' .

* Passive ftp mode.

Version 0.10.36:

* Default key size now 512 bits for speed (i.e. less secure - use
    `-K 1024').

* Timeout option for closing idle shell logins in secure-mcserv.

Version 0.10.33:

* `Forward' a program to forward arbitrary sockets over a secure
    channel.

Version 0.10.30:

* Optimisations to tar file creation.

Version 0.10.26:

* Optimisations now make mc:// connections as fast as ftp
    connections.

Version 0.10.25:

* Support for transparent compression of mc:// connections with
    -z option

Version 0.10.22:

* Support to create tar files with a --tar-file option. This
    is used with recursdir and is useful for backing up a
    remote ftp site.

Version 0.10.21:

* Fixed an illusive segfault when doing ftp transfers. A few
    users have complained about this and will be happy to know
    that it has now been tracked down.

Version 0.10.18:

* Autodetects US/International versions and downloads scripts
    automatically

Version 0.10.12:

* All cryptography now inside scripts.


Version 0.10.9:

* generic script does public key cryptography. this
    can be distributed seperately to the binary so as to
    have distributions within US munition export
    regulations  ;-]

* bug fixes


Version 0.10.3:
===============

* pslogin protocol changes, making previous versions
    incompatable.

* now supports window size changing


Version 0.10.2:
===============

* Remote login command with encryption. Command is
    pslogin mc://user@hostname:port/

* Protocol has been changed slightly again, making
    previous versions incompatable.


Version 0.9.34:
===============

* Key storage has been completely changed. Please delete your
	old key directories: /etc/ssocket and ~/.ssocket

* New option --key-size supports 512, 768, 1024 and
	1536 key sizes.


Version 0.9.33:
===============

* Now supports generic scripts to decide whether to include a file.
	The scripts are a free form C style language. Eg:

	if (S_ISSOCK(stat.st_mode) || S_ISFIFO(stat.st_mode)
		|| S_ISBLK(stat.st_mode) || S_ISCHR(stat.st_mode)) {
	    return EXCLUDE;
	} else
	    return INCLUDE;

* Default key size for secure connections is now 1024 bits.

Pavel is busy fixing the vfs code of the midnight commander. When he
gets that right, I will include the code and we will have fish support
as well. He intends to fix up ftp support also and improve error
checking. Hence I will not duplicate his efforts here.


Version 0.9.30:
===============

* Now support secure sockets.
	This is my own protocol using Diffie-Hellman key exchange, p-NEW
	signature authentication and stream cypher encryption.
	See the file diffie/diffie-socket.h for more info.

* Support file locking.

* Bug fixes (see ChangeLog)
