-
-Version 1.0: August 11, 1996 (cjm)
-
-Version 1.1: August 20, 1996 (cjm)
- - Host accepts incoming connections for ports 0 to 1023.
-
-Version 1.2: September 7, 1996 (cjm)
- - Fragment handling error in alias_db.c corrected.
-
-Version 1.3: September 15, 1996 (cjm)
- - Generalized mechanism for handling incoming
- connections (no more 0 to 1023 restriction).
-
- - Increased ICMP support (will handle traceroute now).
-
- - Improved TCP close connection logic.
-
-Version 1.4: September 16, 1996 (cjm)
-
-Version 1.5: September 17, 1996 (cjm)
- - Corrected error in handling incoming UDP packets
- with zero checksum.
-
-Version 1.6: September 18, 1996
- - Simplified ICMP data storage. Will now handle
- tracert from Win95 and NT as well as FreeBSD
- traceroute, which uses UDP packets to non-existent
- ports.
-
-Version 1.7: January 9, 1997 (cjm)
- - Reduced malloc() activity for ICMP echo and
- timestamp requests.
-
- - Added handling for out-of-order IP fragments.
-
- - Switched to differential checksum computation
- for IP headers (TCP, UDP and ICMP checksums
- were already differential).
-
- - Accepts FTP data connections from other than
- port 20. This allows one ftp connections
- from two hosts which are both running packet
- aliasing.
-
- - Checksum error on FTP transfers. Problem
- in code located by Martin Renters and
- Brian Somers.
-
-Version 1.8: January 14, 1997 (cjm)
- - Fixed data type error in function StartPoint()
- in alias_db.c (this bug did not exist before v1.7)
- Problem in code located by Ari Suutari.
-
-Version 1.9: February 1, 1997 (Eivind Eklund <perhaps@yes.no>)
- - Added support for IRC DCC (ee)
-
- - Changed the aliasing routines to use ANSI style
- throughout (ee)
-
- - Minor API changes for integration with other
- programs than PPP (ee)
-
- - Fixed minor security hole in alias_ftp.c for
- other applications of the aliasing software.
- Hole could _not_ manifest in ppp+pktAlias, but
- could potentially manifest in other applications
- of the aliasing. (ee)
-
- - Connections initiated from packet aliasing
- host machine will not have their port number
- aliased unless it conflicts with an aliasing
- port already being used. (There is an option
- to disable this for debugging) (cjm)
-
- - Sockets will be allocated in cases where
- there might be port interference with the
- host machine. This can be disabled in cases
- where the ppp host will be acting purely as a
- masquerading router and not generate any
- traffic of its own.
- (cjm)
-
-Version 2.0: March, 1997 (cjm)
- - Aliasing links are cleared only when a host interface address
- changes.
-
- - PacketAliasPermanentLink() API added.
-
- - Option for only aliasing private, unregistered
- IP addresses added.
-
- - Substantial rework to the aliasing lookup engine.
-
-Version 2.1: May, 1997 (cjm)
- - Continuing rework to the aliasing lookup engine
- to support multiple incoming addresses and static
- NAT. PacketAliasRedirectPort() and
- PacketAliasRedirectAddr() added to API.
-
- - Now supports outgoing as well as incoming ICMP
- error messages.
-
-Version 2.2: July, 1997 (cjm)
- - Rationalized API function names to all begin with
- "PacketAlias..." Old function names are retained
- for backwards compatibility.
-
- - Packet aliasing engine will now free memory of
- fragments which are never resolved after a timeout
- period. Once a fragment is resolved, it becomes
- the users responsibility to free the memory.
-
-Version 2.3: August 11, 1997 (cjm)
- - Problem associated with socket file descriptor
- accumulation in alias_db.c corrected. The sockets
- had to be closed when a binding failed. Problem
- in code located by Gordon Burditt.
-
-Version 2.4: September 1, 1997 (cjm)
- - PKT_ALIAS_UNREGISTERED_ONLY option repaired.
- This part of the code was incorrectly re-implemented
- in version 2.1.
-
-Version 2.5: December, 1997 (ee)
- - Added PKT_ALIAS_PUNCH_FW mode for firewall
- bypass of FTP/IRC DCC data connections. Also added
- improved TCP connection monitoring.
-
-Version 2.6: May, 1998 (amurai)
- - Added supporting routine for NetBios over TCP/IP.
-
-Version 3.0: January 1, 1999
- - Transparent proxying support added.
- - PPTP redirecting support added based on patches
- contributed by Dru Nelson <dnelson@redwoodsoft.com>.
-
-Version 3.1: May, 2000 (Erik Salander, erik@whistle.com)
- - Added support to alias 227 replies, allows aliasing for
- FTP servers in passive mode.
- - Added support for PPTP aliasing.
-
-Version 3.2: July, 2000 (Erik Salander, erik@whistle.com and
- Junichi Satoh, junichi@junichi.org)
- - Added support for streaming media (RTSP and PNA) aliasing.
