2000

fcheck (2.7.54-1) unstable; urgency=low

   * Initial Release for Debian
   * Original fcheck written by Michael A. Gumienny <gumieny@hotmail.com>
 
   * Major Updates Provided in This Release:
   *
   * Databases merged into one database, DATABASE= configuration keyword now
   * points to the full path and filename to use for that database.
   *
   * Added the "-h" option to look for the configuration file with the $HOSTNAME
   * environment variable appended to the end fo it. (This is useful in
   * distributed system environments.)
   *
   * (Example)
   * $HOSTNAME=myhost
   * fcheck -ahf A_Config.dbf
   * Result: fcheck would use a configuration file of "A_Config.dbf.myhost"
   *
   * Added the "-r" option to create a report suitable for email. The generated
   * report will show good, and bad integrity checks.
   *
   * Added the "-x" option to allow monitoring the "number of links", "UID",
   * "GID", and the "Major/Minor" numbers of device files.
   *
   * Added the "FILE=" keyword in the configuration file. This will allow you to
   * monitor single files, rather than entire directory contents.
   *
   * Added the "FILETYPER=" keyword in the configuration file. This needs to be
   * set if you use the "-x" option, and is what will allow you to determine
   * file types, and major/minor numbers of device files.
