11.12a
2	Support for ENUM and BITS in gensnmp{tree,def}. Include directives
3	and typedefs.
4
51.12
6	A couple of man page fixes from various submitters.
7
8	Make default communities NULL for security.
9
10	Fix a core dump when -d tracing suboption has no argument (thanks
11	to Shteryana Shopova).
12
13	Fix bug in parsing the include path in the daemon.
14
15	Fix an uninitialize structure field in gensnmptree (thanks to
16	jasone@freebsdorg)
17
18	64bit HC counters in the IF-MIB by polling the OS periodically.
19
20	Fix link traps to be more RFC conform (thanks to glebius@freebsd.org)
21
22	Add fallback definition for SA_SIZE() to support.h.
23
24	Move the porting definitions for U?INT32_{MIN,MAX} into support.h.
25
26	Include a sys/tree.h from FreeBSD-current and add autoconf
27	check for it.
28
291.11a	Fix build of modules when stdint.h is included after asn1.h
30
311.11	Make the Mib2 routing table use red-black tree. This vastly
32	reduces loading and access time. Load the table only every 10
33	minutes. In the meantime process message from the routing socket
34	to update the table.
35
36	Lot of man-page fixes from ru@freebsd.org.
37
38	Fixes to command line macros and macro redefinition.
39
40	Trap variables for ntp (still need trap definition and code).
41
42	Periodic timers from Victor Cruceru.
43
44	Man-page fixes from Christian Brueffer.
45
46	Lots of spelling fixes from Giorgios Keramidas.
47
48	A number of changes to facilitate building on FreeBSD-4 from
49	Andrey Elsukov.
50
51	Add repeatable timers.
52
531.10
54	Change all the tick handling in the daemon from 32-bit to 64-bit.
55	Bump the modules' major version number to 3.
56
57	snmp_dialog: make the syntax of the variable bindings in the outgoing
58	message SNMP_SYNTAX_NULL regardless of the syntax given by the user.
59
60	Fix an error in timer handling in the LIBBEGEMOT case.
61
62	snmpd/main.c: Fix a 64-bit warning.
63
64	lib/snmpclient: Add snmp_parse_server().
65
661.9
67	tcpwrapper support from glebius@freebsd.org.
68
69	crude interface to NTP: snmp_ntp
70
711.8
72	many man page fixes from ru@freebsd.org and tobez@freebsd.org
73
74	snmpd/main.c: fix a problem which resulted in the daemon exiting
75	when a local socket was closed.
76
77	snmpd/trans_lsock.c: include stdio.h to get a prototype for remove.
78
79	gensnmptree/gensnmptree.c: fix a compile error
80
81	snmp_mibII: add new field spec_oid to ifmib. This allows ifType
82	specific modules to insert the value to be returned for ifSpecific.
83
841.7a
85	fix core dump when config file cannot be opened (submitted by
86	Maxim Konovalov)
87
881.7
89	snmpd: Move event library initialization before reading of
90	config file (thanks to phk).
91
92	gensnmptree: can now read more than one tree and merge them.
93
94	some support for compilation on older systems
95
96	use standard C fixed width integer types [u]intNN_t
97
981.6
99	New gensnmpdef tool. Needs libsmi.
100
101	Make build infrastructure more intelligent.
102
103	Fix a typo in the mibII counter retrival code.
104
105	Add a new field to struct snmp_node for snmp agents: tree_data.
106	This field can be used by the application.
107
108	Fix a syntax error in the example configuration file (thanks to
109	David J Duchscher).
110
111	Fix a long standing problem with the module loading code
112	and a memory leak. When a module could not be loaded usually
113	a core dump was generated. This was caused by wrong handling
114	of malloced memory in the module table dependency. While
115	fixing this problem it became obvious that dynamic allocated
116	data which was held in a dependency could be lost, because
117	there was no guarantee that the dependency handler ever was
118	call (in case of an error in a SET handler or an earlier
119	dependency in the same PDU) thus causing this memory to leak.
120	To fix this a third dependency operation is introduced
121	SNMP_DEPOP_FINISH which is invoked just before a dependency
122	is freed at the very end of the SET PDU handling. This
123	means also that finalizers (set_atfinish) can be converted
124	to DEPOP_FINISH handler in almost all cases. The only case
125	where this is not so easy is when a finializer was registered
126	for a simple SET operation. In this case an artifical dependency
127	would be needed. Because this seems to occure very seldom the
128	snmp_set_atfinish() call is removed. Thanks to Paul-Henning Kamp
129	for an initial fix for the core dump.
130
13109-Dec-2003
132	First step on factoring out the transport mapping stuff into
133	loadable modules.
134
135	Local stream sockets that check the clients privileges.
136
13703-Dec-2003
138	Bump version to 1.5 but leave library version intact.
139
14003-Dec-2003
141	Now works with libbegemot polling stuff instead of libisc.
142	Use --with-libbegemot[=path] to configure.
143
14403-Dec-2003
145	Fix parsing of non-minimal ASN.1 integers. They are now disallowed.
146	Non-minimal lengths are allowed.
147
148	Remove copyright clause 3 everywhere.
149
150	Make an autoconf build infrastructure.
151
15208-Nov-2003
153	WARNS=6 fixed.
154
15528-Jan-2003
156	WARNS=5 fixes.
157
15809-Jan-2003
159	snmpd: remove local socket in case of an error to fully initialize it.
160	Use chmod instead of fchmod. The latter seems not really to change
161	the mode of the socket.
162
163	lib: at program exit remove the local socket in the library.
164
16511-Dec-2002
166	Implement listening on unix domain sockets. The client must bind
167	its socket, or the server cannot send back its response. These
168	sockets are considered to be more secure, because it is much
169	harder for an intruder to listen on them.
170
171	This requires changes in snmpmod.h and snmpclient.h.
172
17304-Dec-2002
174	Sparc fixes.
175
17615-Aug-2002
177	Use inttypes.h instead of limits.h to get integer limits. This
178	seems to be the Posix way.
179
180	First drafts of an snmpd, gensnmptree, asn1, bsnmplib,
181	bsnmpclient, bsnmpagent, snmpmod, snmp_mibII, snmp_netgraph man pages.
182
183	snmpd/main.c: reorder getopt options according to style(9). Implement
184	a -h option to print a short help.
185
18625-Jun-2002
187	Makefiles rewritten to not use bsnmpmod.mk. The BSD makefiles are
188	really hard to use, because a) they are not documented and b) they
189	change much too often.
190
191	Make the patch a context diff instead of a unified one.
192
19328-Feb-2002
194	Library code for SNMP clients.
