conserver-8.0.5 is available
Looks like 8.0.5 is the Halloween release...I hope it doesn't turn into
a pumpkin. ;-)

This release has two minor enhancements and a few bug fixes. If anyone
sees any problems, please let me know.

Happy Halloween!

version 8.0.5 (Oct 31,2003):
- added 'loghostnames' config option (default is on) to log
client hostnames instead of ip addresses (like pre-8.0.0) -
suggested by Han Pilmeyer <han@zk3.dec.com>
- fixed bug where 'daemonmode' config file option wasn't being
used
- fixed potential logfile (-L) opening problem processing SIGHUP
- fixed various potential conserver.cf issues with 'config'
block values processing SIGHUP
- added 'setproctitle' config option (default is off) to enable
changing the process title to contain runtime information -
patch by Dmitry Morozovsky <marck@rinet.ru>

Conservers...

Recently upgraded to 8.0.4 (and now 8.0.5) from 7.2.7 and cannot get acls
for host access control to work properly. Configured with
--with-trustrevdns and specifying the domain names in conserver.cf, but
only get error (and refused connections). FQDN and IPaddrs work fine. The
conserver host can reverse lookup the FQDN properly.

# ./conserver -V
...
conserver: built with `./configure --prefix=/local/tools/conserver --with-regex --with-port=782 --with-master=conserver --with-trustrevdns'
