* Makefile (version): Change to 1.8.1.
70
Version 1.8.1 (2019-02-10)
71
* Client
72
** Only generate TLS keys using GnuTLS' certtool, of sufficient
73
   version.  Key generation of TLS keys will not happen until a
74
   version of GnuTLS is installed with support for raw public keys.
75
** Remove any bad keys created by 1.8.0 and openssl.
76
* Server
77
** On installation, edit clients.conf and remove the same bad key ID
78
   which was erroneously reported by all 1.8.0 clients.  Also do not
79
   trust this key ID in the server.
80

371 by Teddy Hogeborn
* Makefile (version): Change to 1.8.0.
81
Version 1.8.0 (2019-02-10)
82
* Client
83
** Use new TLS keys for server communication and identification.
84
   With GnuTLS 3.6 or later, OpenPGP keys are no longer supported.
85
   The client can now use the new "raw public keys" (RFC 7250) API
86
   instead, using GnuTLS 3.6.6.  Please note: This *requires* new key
87
   IDs to be added to server's client.conf file.
88
** New --tls-privkey and --tls-pubkey options to load TLS key files.
89
   If GnuTLS is too old, these options do nothing.
90
* Server
91
** Supports either old or new GnuTLS.
92
   The server now supports using GnuTLS 3.6.6 and clients connecting
93
   with "raw public keys" as identification.  The server will read
94
   both fingerprints and key IDs from clients.conf file, and will use
95
   either one or the other, depending on what is supported by GnuTLS
96
   on the system.  Please note: both are *not* supported at once; if
97
   one type is supported by GnuTLS, all values of the other type from
98
   clients.conf are ignored.

* Makefile (version): Change to 1.7.20.
100
Version 1.7.20 (2018-08-19)
101
* Client
102
** Fix: Adapt to the Debian cryptsetup package 2.0.3 or later.
103
   Important: in that version or later, the plugins "askpass-fifo",
104
   "password-prompt", and "plymouth" will no longer be run, since they
105
   would conflict with what cryptsetup is doing.  Other plugins, such
106
   as mandos-client and any user-supplied plugins, will still run.
107
** Better error message if failing to decrypt secret data
108
** Check for (and report) any key import failure from GPGME
109
** Better error message if self-signature verification fails
110
** Set system clock if not set; required by GnuPG for key import
111
** When debugging plugin-runner, it will now show starting plugins

202
   #816513)
203

243
   a network other than the one which the Mandos server is on.)
244
** Use a better value than 1024 for the default number of DH bits.
245
   This better value is either provided by a DH parameters file (see
246
   below) or an appropriate number of DH bits is determined based on
247
   the PGP key.
248
** Bug fix: mandos-keygen now generates correct output for the

275

287
** Give better error messages when run without sufficient privileges
288
** Only warn if workaround for Debian bug #633582 was necessary and
289
   failed, not if it failed and was unnecessary.

320
** Bug fix: Don't print output from checkers when running in
321
   foreground.

* Server
337
** Takes new --foreground option

342
   well as the $DEVICE environment variable for the network hooks) is
343
   now a comma-separated list of interfaces to use.

* Makefile (version): Changed to "1.5.0".
378
Version 1.5.0 (2012-01-01)
379
* Client
380
** Network hooks.  The Mandos client can now run custom scripts to take
381
   up a network interface before the client is run.  Three example
382
   scripts are provided: "wireless", "openvpn", and "bridge".
383
   To facilitate this, the client now prefers network interfaces which
384
   are up (if any) over all other interfaces.
385
* Server
386
** Persistent state.  Client state is now saved between server
387
   restarts.
388
** clients.conf file can now contain "enabled" setting for clients.
389
** Bug fix: Fix rare crash bug.
390
** Bug fix: Send corrent D-Bus type in PropertyChanged for
391
   "ApprovalDelay", "ApprovalDuration", "Timeout", and
392
   "ExtendedTimeout".
393
** mandos-ctl: Bare numbers as arguments are taken to be milliseconds.
394
** Bug fix: mandos-ctl --secret option now works.
395
** New D-Bus signal: se.recompile.Mandos.NewRequest(s).

   controlled by new "extended_timeout" setting.
411
** New domain name: "fukt.bsnet.se" changes to "recompile.se".  This
412
   also affects the D-Bus bus and interface names (old names still
413
   work).  Users should start using the new names immediately.
414
