This release doesn't have traditional bug fixes, but it does have
improvements that fix things that I consider bugs (so, minor bug fixes).
It also adds a new "MOTD" feature, for displaying messages when
users attach to a console.
Here are the complete list of changes...
version 8.0.2 (Oct 5, 2003):
- reworked the i/o calls to better buffer data
- added console 'motd' option for holding a "message of the
day", displayed to the client on attachment to console -
suggested by Toby Gerhart <toby.gerhart@eds.com>
- added ^Ecm client command for displaying MOTD and integrated
it into the client console attachment sequence
- now unallocate client lists when forking new child conserver
processes
- changed strdup() to local StrDup() so dmalloc can gracefully
track changes
- added a ^Ec; sequence to let client signal server when it's
ready to see console data, otherwise a chatty console can
cause the login sequence to fail and you can never attach to
the console
