Wednesday, September 3, 2014 -- Dante v1.4.1

Inferno Nettverk A/S is pleased to announce a new release of
Dante - a free SOCKS client and server implementation for UNIX.

Dante is developed by Inferno Nettverk A/S, a software engineering
company located in Oslo Research Park, Norway.

Inferno Nettverk specialises in services related to software development
on UNIX/Linux and embedded/real-time platforms.

Please see "http://www.inet.no/english/services.html" for more information
about our services.

Dante is free software, available under a BSD-like license.

Inferno Nettverk also provides commercial services related to Dante.
These services include 24/7 support via phone and email, customised
installations/tuning of Dante, development, porting and embedding.

The Dante software consists of two parts, packed into one archive:
1) The server part, supporting SOCKS v4 and SOCKS v5.
2) The client (socksify) part, supporting SOCKS v4, SOCKS v5, HTTP v1.0,
   and UPnP.

In addition to standard SOCKS authentication methods, Dante includes
the following additional methods:
  - BSD Authentication (OpenBSD).
  - LDAP.
  - PAM.
  - RFC931 ("ident").

This release is mainly a bugfix release.

Changes include the following:

Generic changes:
 o Fixed configure problem with detection of libc.so on recent FreeBSD
   versions.
   Problem report and testing by Mikhail <mp39590@gmail.com.example.com>.

 o Fixed problem in configure test used for figuring out which
   buffer in an IPC socket is used for determining bytes that can
   be buffered.  Should fix problem on FreeBSD.

   Diagnosed in detail by Mikhail <mp39590@gmail.com.example.com>.
   Also reported by Carlos Jacobo Puga Medina <cpm@fbsd.es.example.com>.

 o Fixed bug in handling of buffered GSSAPI data.

 o AIX 6.1 compilation fixes.

 o NetBSD 6.1.3 gethostbyaddr() configure fix.
   Problem reported by Anthony Howe <achowe@snert.com.example.com>.

Server changes:
 o Added keywords for specifying that only IPv4 or IPv6 should be used
   on internal or external interfaces.

 o Fix bug that prevented external.rotation: same-same from working correctly.
   Reported by Alexander.V.Makkoveev (makkoveev@gmail.com.example.com).

 o Use wait3(2) rather than wait4(2), as the latter (implemented as a
   wrapper on Solaris) has a bug on Solaris in the handling of the WAIT_ANY
   value.  This is -1 traditionally, but on Solaris wait4(2) is expecting
   it to be the value 0. This change also fixes a similar problem on AIX.

Client changes:
 o Remove extra CRLF from CONNECT request, as in patch submitted by
   "Dyson, Brian J" <Brian.Dyson@ca.com.example.com>.
