If you're using socket-based consoles (like a terminal server) and
trying to run any of the 8.0.X code, please upgrade to 8.0.9. A major
connect()/select() handling bug is fixed that prevents consoles from
timing out. Certain cases allow the pre-8.0.9 code to work, but it
seems more a fluke than anything else.
version 8.0.9 (Dec 10, 2003):
- fixed major bug in connect() handling which causes most
socket-based consoles to timeout after 10 seconds - reported
by Tom Rataski <trataski@intlsteel.com>
- added a couple details to the 'logfilemax' manpage entry
