Fixed upper/lower problem +in convkeps.pl. +2. enhanced load/keps to accept a message no. This will create a new keps +file from a msg (hopefully containing 2 Line Nasa keps) and then load - all +in one step. Added load/keps to the help files +3. Updated spanish Messages +4. Improve wcy command from Stephan DK8LV's input +5. Added set/prompt (and unset/prompt) command so that Stephan can fool some +external programs into thinking it is talking to clx. +15Dec01======================================================================= +1. added superfluous spaces back into PC73 for the benefit of clx +14Dec01======================================================================= +1. make Spanish in set/lang & Messages 'es' instead of 'sp' +2. added prototype WCY and WWV commands (for qualified users only) +3. Added Commands_es.hlp contributed by Angel EA7WA +12Dec01======================================================================= +1. added Commands_de.hlp contributed (in record time) by Stephan DK8LV. +2. fixed help command so it uses it! +11Dec01======================================================================= +1. make PC17 generation more unconditional +08Dec01======================================================================= +1. added unset/hops command +02Dec01======================================================================= +1. Fix spurious 'new message for you' messages if things are deleted but +unread. +2. stop remote passive nodes (those with version numbers of 0000) from +poluting the nodes table. Maybe this will make things slightly more stable. +3. Take off rspf checks on announces and spots and allow the dupe filters +to take the strain. +4. Move the dupe checking AFTER the input filtering for announces and spots. +5. Changed the checking of PC19/21 that it doesn't alter the wrong node +6. Alter the storage of messages so that illegal characters are stored as '.' +in an attempt to stop such messages from hanging. +26Nov01======================================================================= +1. Make changes to the installation manual to show making the client before +actually trying to use it! Thanks to oz1lqh. Also add a line for SuSE +distros on useradd. +22Nov01======================================================================= +1. finally fix DELETE = ^H = Backspace in console.pl +21Nov01======================================================================= +1. altered the PC16/17 generation slightly to see whether this cures Roland's +problem. +19Nov01======================================================================= +1. added Ducie Island to prefixes +17Nov01======================================================================= +1. updated the Java Web Interface from Ian, m0azm to allow passwords. If +a user with no password enters anything, including null, it is happily +accepted and ignored. +2. added the German language to the Messages file from Stephan, dk8lv +14Nov01======================================================================= +1. make the number of characters of the dx comment dependant on the type of +connection. This should mean that 'legacy' user programs can cope. +2. move the handling of unprintable characters out of IntMsg +07Nov01======================================================================= +1. fix is_pctext so that it actually catches corrupt spots and announces. +2. fix console.pl so that you can type in '0' again +3. Fix problem with reply disappearing up its own bottom. +4. Added Steve's latest sh/moon stuff +06Nov01======================================================================= +1. fix read so that sysop reading doesn't increment the read counter for +private mail not addressed to them. +2. fix console.pl to show blank lines more reliably. +3. fix msgs so that 2 R: lines are only stored on initial entry (not just +after forwarding). +04Nov01======================================================================= +1. Allow the user to equal the node in RSPF checks (this allows spots and +stuff with the origin and spotter to be the same (although it is STRONGLY +recommended that they are NOT!!! [hint hint]). +2. make the send command rather more sensitive to what is allowed. Basically +it will only allow TO addresses that are bull addresses (if not private) or +vaild callsigns (if private). Bull addresses are the ones in +/spider/msg/forward.pl with a 'T' flag on them. If there is no forward +file it will only allow 'ALL' and 'DX' as valid Bull TO addresses. You may +use commas as callsign separators if you like. +02Nov01======================================================================= +1. fixed some Aliasing problems, but this whole area will have to be addressed +more comprehensively. +2. Changed talk logging so that it hopefully is more consistant and maybe even +useful. +3. Altered the mechanism of the personal emailing so that it uses lower level +components and should be therefore available on M$ platforms. You will need +to install a version of libnet (perl -MCPAN -eshell, then install Net::SMTP). +I believe all 5.6.x perls have this built in (ie M$ should have this). If you +are on M$ or you want to use an MTA via SMTP in linux then you need to declare +the dns name of the MTA by: set/var $DXMsg::email_server = 'post.fred.net' +(or whatever the MTA is called). You can also use local programs other than +sendmail by: set/var $DXMsg::email_prog = '/usr/bin/postfix ..' or whatever. +Finally you can alter the 'from' address using: set/var $DXMsg::email_from += 'FBloggs@msn.com' (\@ if you use " and ") - bewarned that you may be +prevented from using just any old address. You can place these commands in +/spider/scripts/startup for permanent use. 01Nov01======================================================================= 1. added information on registration, login scripts and passwords to the -administration manual +26Oct01======================================================================= +1. If $main::reqreg = 1 then set/register will allow 'registered' users +full access, if $main::reqreg = 2 then registered users will be 'read-only' +(ie the opposite). If $main::reqreg = 0 then registration and its effects +are disabled. 25Oct01======================================================================= 1. added unset/password command to allow sysops (only) to completely delete and remove a user's password. @@ -8,10 +104,7 @@ and remove a user's password. 3. give a read receipt for everybody that reads a message so marked. 4. enhance set/email so that if you set email address(es) with this command it will send any messages to your callsign as they come in. unset/email -will disable forwarding.
