Fixed variable expansion in service descriptions.

[test.git] / ChangeLog

2009-04-28  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Fixed variable expansion in service descriptions.
	
2009-04-27  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.7

	* Improved compatibility with some PAM configurations when running
	as a non-privileged user.

	* Fixed a bug that required shells to output data (e.g. a prompt)
	before they could read the first data.

	* Fixed a potential crash.

2009-04-12  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.6

	* The demo application is still incomplete, but starting to be
	somewhat functional. The BASIC interpreter supports variables, and
	can parse expressions. But it is still missing all flow-control
	commands, making it somewhat useless for writing real programs.

2009-03-30  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Added initial revision of demo application.

	* Show fatal error message even when running in "quiet" mode.

	* Make it easier to override parameters needed by the system startup
	scripts.

2009-03-29  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Added support for chained SSL certificates

2009-03-23  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Added an INSTALL.Debian file with Debian-specific instructions on
	how to build and install a package file.

2009-03-21  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Possible fix for IE problems with horizontal positioning of
	cursor if the line ends in spaces.

	* Work-around for an IE6 bug when doing HTTPS through proxies.
	
2009-03-21  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.5

	* More testing on older IE versions.

2009-03-19  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Fixed cursor positioning. Hopefully, more browsers will be happy
	with this, now.

	* Explicitly added no-cache headers to our responses. This might help
	with the IE6 problems.

2009-03-17  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Allow root to bind to privileged port.

2009-03-17  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Fixed IE6 support.

	* Fixed possible memory corruption, when sessions time out.

2009-03-16  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Fixed some compiler warnings, that newer versions of GCC issue.

2009-02-27  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Added fallback on old-style pty's, if /dev/pts is not mounted.

	* Work-around for systems that don't define a "nogroup" group.

	* Remove the dependency on fdopendir, which does not exist
	everywhere.

2009-02-16  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Include VCS revision number in user-visible version string.

	* Allow "configure" to select whether OpenSSL and PAM libraries
	should be used at all, dynamically searched-for at run-time, or
	linked as a regular dynamic library.

	* Fixed various bugs that prevents ShellInABox from running on
	FreeBSD

2009-02-12  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.4

2009-02-11  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Fixed fatal compiler warning if compiling without SSL support.

	* Fixed cursor hiding and showing

	* Fixed various rendering glitches reported by Phil Endecott of
	Anyterm (http://anyterm.org) fame.

	* Made code more portable. In particular, fixed sed scripts.

	* Added explicit config.h file, instead of passing configuration
	options on the compiler's command line.

	* Fixed compilation issues on BSD systems. Code is still untested
	and unsupported on non-Linux systems at this time.

2009-01-21  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.3

	* Fixed a show-stopper bug that broke the --cert option.

2009-01-21  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.2

	* Fixed a bug that could result in the font getting corrupted.

	* Improved compatibility with more versions of the OpenSSL library.
	Previously, the feature test for TLSEXT did not always work correctly,
	resulting in compilation failures.

	* Improved support for embedding shellinaboxd into existing web
	services. SSL certificates can now be passed in through a file
	handle, and port and pid numbers can be retrieved from the CGI header.

2009-01-08  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Released version 2.1

	* Fixed build errors mostly related to x86_64.

	* Added --no-beep command line option to avoid VLC plugin crashing
	Firefox/x86_64.

	* Fixed multi-line selections in Firefox.

2009-01-01  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* Added CGI mode for demand-loading the shellinaboxd daemon
	from a web server. This also allows for the web server to
	perform authentication, instead of having shellinaboxd do so.
	
	* Tightened setuid-root operation to no longer allow switching
	to arbitrary users/groups. As before, setuid-root remains a
	non-standard configuration that is not currently recommended.
	
	* Fixed session management to deal better with torn down
	connections. Closed one bug that could have resulted in
	permanently orphaned connections, when the browser navigated
	away from the page.

2008-12-27  Markus Gutschke  <markus@shellinabox.com>

	* First public release of the version 2.0 rewrite. This is the
	first release of ShellInABox that supports an AJAX interface
	instead of the original Java applet.
