ipsvd - upgrading from previous versions


0.9.x to 0.10.1

Client support has been added to the sslio program to have it run under tcpclient. The logging, especially for ssl warnings and errors, has been improved, and the documentation updated.

Here's a sample on how to use sslio in client mode with tcpclient, a https@ program derived from ucspi-tcp's http@ program:

 #!/bin/sh
 echo "GET /${2-} HTTP/1.0
 Host: ${1-0}:${3-443}
 " | tcpclient -RHl0 -- "${1-0}" "${3-443}" sslio -c sh -c '
   addcr >&7
   exec delcr <&6
 ' | awk '/^$/ { body=1; next } { if (body) print }'

0.8.0 or 0.8.2 to 0.9.x

This version introduces the new sslio program (for Linux only), which can be used to encrypt network connections using SSLv3. A new web page describing some of ipsvd's benefits has been added to the documentation.

0.7.0 or 0.7.1 to 0.8.0 or 0.8.2

No further action from you is required.

0.6.1 to 0.7.0 or 0.7.1

A new type of instruction has been added. ipsvd now can be told to look up IP addresses of (dynamic) hostnames on incoming connections, and to handle a connection through different instructions if the client's IP address matches one of these addresses. See ipsvd-instruct for details. The examples have been updated slightly, and additionally includes an example of the new check host instructions.
