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. |
