Rob Davies. man page by me.
* Sethost now supports RSTS and TOPS-20. Thanks to Paul Koning for the patch.
* Include rmtermd from Paul Koning so you can connect your PDP machines to
Linux too.

dnprogs (2.03-1) stable; urgency=low
* RPMs now include the decnetconf script.
* RPMs now include some previously missing man pages
* Corrected dndir so that it works with DECnet/E.
Thanks to Paul Koning <pkoning@xedia.com> for the patch. I've reworked it
a bit so if it doesn't work blame me and not him.
fal still needs a fair bit of work.
* Asking for a directory of an empty filespec shows the user's home directory
* Fixed startup scripts so that startnet really doesn't run on a 2.3 "Steve"
kernel.
* Zeroed out some sockaddr_dn structures for fussier 2.3 kernels.
* Fixed compilation with gcc 2.95.2 (Debian potato)
* Added prototype to dnet_conn into dnetdb.h
* Made phoned a bit more robust to junk coming in on its socket.
* Fixed static linking. Now use the local libs rather than the installed ones
and also made it an all-or-nothing option.
* Fixed dialling in phoned so that it bleeps at the user again.
* ctermd no longer uses 'login -p'
* Fixed the DAP client buffer size from 65536 to 65535. D'oh! Only my FAL
barfed on this piece of (probably alcohol induced) stupidity; and it
shouldn't have.
* In FAL dir node::"/dir" now adds a "/*" to the end of the name so you get
a directory listing.
* Fal doesn't add version numbers to files that already have them (eg. files
created by the VMS NFS client)
* Fixed mirror in dnetd.
* Fixed mirror example code in man page for dnet_daemon.
* Fixed TYPEing files from VMS broken by blocking in 2.01.
* Fixed manpage symlinks for dnet_getnode and dnet_nextnode.
* Phone client now works with 2.3 kernels.
* ctermd & dnetd use Unix98 ptys if available.
* Prevent phone client from dialling itself because it causes a dealock
with the server. I know this is only fixing the symptom but talking to
yourself is bad for you anyway!
* Some documentation updates and man page tidying.
* Added -p option to dnetd to specify an alternative directory to look
for program binaries.
* startnet now works on 'Steve' kernels. It uses the sysctl interface to
configure the system from the information in /etc/decnet.conf. You don't
really need this (and the startup script still doesn't call it) but it
is provided for completeness in case anyone wants to reconfigure their
system on-the-fly.

dnprogs (2.02-1) stable; urgency=low
* Done a little porting for NetBSD * Header field fixes (mainly for VAXeln) * Bug fixes to KEYed reads in librms * Added new functions to librms for easier programming
-- Patrick Caulfield <patrick@pandh.demon.co.uk> Thu, 21 Oct 1999 19:33:06 +0000
dnprogs (2.01-1) stable; urgency=low
* Now builds on libc5 systems. Will I never learn?
* Fixed dncopy/dntype with VFC files * this must have been broken for ages
* Minor Makefile tweaks
* Improved speed of dncopy and fal by extensive use of blocking
* Fixed blocking(!)
* New function in libdnet: dnet_recv(). This function is designed to hide
the differences between recv() in the 'Eduardo' and 'Steve' kernels in
that it will always read a full record before returning.

dnprogs (2.00-1) stable; urgency=medium
* Tidied up all sorts of dndir output, particularly against VMS 7.2
* Fixed crash if dnsubmit/dnprint/dndir were run without parameters but
with switches
* Added exit-char option to sethost and proper usage message
* Removed all references to dnmirror in man pages as it is now part of dnetd
* Improved error detection in dndel
* libdap now understands KEYDEF messages. How much use this is is doubtful
as VMS always sends junk SUMMARY messages :-(
* FAL now (partially) understands $ADF$ files created by VMS NFS client 5.0
* rc script now installed into runlevel directory with RPM but will only start
DECnet if /etc/decnet.conf exists
* Added Steve's dnet_ntop and dnet_pton functions to libdnet

dnprogs (1.94-1) stable; urgency=low
* Tidied error messages from dndel * Fixed Makefile for librms * Fixed race condition in child-death handing of daemons * Install rc script in RPM * rc script "start" command will try to run startnet only if it has to * RPMs and DEBs now build with a prefix of /usr * All sorts of librms fixes * Tidied up 'startnet -hw'. With luck it won't segfault the kernel now.

dnprogs (1.93-1) stable; urgency=low
* All libraries are now release under the LGPL. Thanks to Eduardo and
Steve for allowing me to change the licence on their parts of this software
* Allow command-line options to daemons in dnetd.conf (actually this was a bug)
* Fixed logging (-v) in dncopy, dndel, dnsubmit, and dndir
* Removed error strings from dncopy that were also in libdap
* Fixed up error reporting in dncopy
* getnodebyname(3) now accepts node addresses, eg. "dndir 1.30::" works
* Moved man pages for ctermd and startnet to section 8 and updated them
* Made phoned run as an unprivileged user after bind, which is all it needs
root privileges for
* 'make rpm' now honours all the prefixes and includes the right C++ libs
from Debian
* Cosmetic fixes to phone client
* NEW! librms library to help people write Linux applications that read VMS
files (including indexed ones)

dnprogs (1.92-1) stable; urgency=low
* Don't link dntask against libdap * Install startup scripts during 'make install' * Fixed some warnings on libc5 systems - no not those! * dndir shows record size of fixed-length record files * Fixed fal bug which prevented overwriting of files * fixed fal logging * fal now shows directories in a more sensible form * First stab at FAL file type guessing. Opinions please!!

dnprogs (1.91-1) stable; urgency=low
* This is a pre-release of dnprogs 2.0
* New GTK-based phone client - needs GTK+ 1.2. Builds into existing
ncurses client if GTK+ 1.2 is available.
* Now uses kernel includes and warns if they are not installed.
* loadsabugs fixed in phone client
* Some phoned bugs fixed too
* New functions dnet_getnode/dnet_nextnode/dnet_endnode in libdnet
* Fixed problem with large messages in sethost (I saw this when shutting down
a VAX from Linux)
* Fixed signal race condition in sethost
* New dnetd server to run daemons and arbitrary commands
(needs latest kernel patch that supports SDF_WILD)
* Should do all the right things with Steve's kernel patch now.
* Better Makefiles - Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for the patch.
* Static libdnet is not compiled -fPIC (because of above)
* Can move config files out of /etc if you so wish
* Made libdnet version match the suite version
* New library libdnet_daemon. This contains code used by all daemon processes
that (can be) forked by dnetd or run standalone.
* Re-worked all daemon programs to use libdnet_daemon
