* Improved user checking code to avoid locking out valid users from the system. (Thanks to Lauri Kasanen for reporting this bug and supplying a patch.) version 4.1
* Added checks to crypt() calls to prevent operating on NULL pointer. (Thanks to Lauri Kasanen for reporting this bug.) version 4.0
* Added patch from Thomas Cort to make Bftpd compile on NetBSD. version 3.9
* Adjusted Makefile to allow for easy access to non-default compiler options. Alternative compiler can be used by running \"make CC=compilername\".
* Zhenbo Xu reported several potential memory bugs which could cause Bftpd if the operating system is out of memory. Also reported a memory leak. Checks are now in place to prevent crashes and the memory leak has been plugged.
* Added MINIX-specific configuration file which should allow Bftpd to run smoothly and without additional configuration on MINIX.
* Merged MINIX porting code into mainline Bftpd so we can work with one, unified code base. version 3.8
* Fixed bug in user tracking which could result in corrupted times on 64-bit systems.
* When Bftpd is compiled with a \"prefix\" (which is the default behaviour) the Bftpd will check both /etc/bftpd.conf AND PREFIX/etc/bftpd.conf when trying to find its configuration file. This should avoid requiring the admin to pass the location of the config file on the command line. version 3.7
* Removed CVS directory from doc folder.
* Options in the config file may now have following #comments. Reading the config file should happen a little faster too. Thanks to Zhang for reporting this issue.
* Fixed typo in re-reading config file. Thanks to Zhang for reporting this issue.
* When installing Bftpd the make file now respects the configure --prefix=/path/to/install flag. Thanks to Martin for reporting this bug.
* Config file parser now handled multiple unexpected spaces. Thanks to Chang for reporting this issue.- Replaced bftpd-2.8_install.patch with bftpd-4.9_install.patch- Spec cleanup
* Thu Jul 28 2011 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org- update to 3.6:
* includes a fix for dealing with named pipes: previously performing a directory listing on a directory that included a named pipe would cause Bftpd\'s connect to stall; this release provides a work-around so that directory listings complete cleanly
* Sat Jul 23 2011 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org- update to 3.5:
* added explicit setting of sin_family to AF_INET to avoid ambiguity and possible bind errors- changes from 3.4:
* added configuration file option TIMEZONE_FIX: by default Bftpd tries to guess the time zone, working around the C library; when running on a system where the C library can correctly guess the time zone in a chroot environment, set TIMEZONE_FIX=\"no\" in the bftpd.conf file
* added -v command line option which will cause Bftpd to display the current version and exit- changes from 3.3:
* time stamps in the log file were not correct after chrooting; added time zone code to make sure we can calculate the correct time without access to system time zone info
* Thu Apr 28 2011 msebenAATTgmail.com- update to bftpd 3.2
* Added new value for SHOW_HIDDEN_FILES option in the config file. The option can now be set to \"yes\", \"no\" or \"always\". This allows admins to determine whether clients can see hidden files if it is requested, never or all the time, repectively. Please see the config file comments for details.
* Made sure HIDE_GROUP variable will cause files belonging to a given group to not be shown to the client.- changes in bftpd 3.1
* Make sure default config disables anonymous login by default.- changes in bftpd 3.0
* Updated documentation to fix links. Thanks to Xiang for pointing out the error.
* Added Slovak documentation, provided by Dusan.

* the ROOTDIR option now works properly for anonymous users
* Wed Apr 21 2010 pascal.bleserAATTopensuse.org- update to 2.8:
* fixes anonymous logins, which were broken a few releases back: anonymous logins are now blocked by default, but can be easily enabled in the configuration file
* support has been added for the \"-a\" flag in the LIST command, allowing users to see hidden files
* the search function has been fixed so that symbolic links are displayed properly, even if the link is broken
* some fixes were applied, making sure the server can always read user-specific settings from the config file
* when several connections are dropped at once, the server now cleans up all child processes, avoiding zombies- changes from 2.7:
* fixes an issue where the same error code was returned regardless of whether the client was trying to delete a write- protected directory or a non-empty directory; the proper codes are now returned, making sure the FTP client will be able to take the proper action- changes from 2.6:
