* Makefile (version): Change to 1.8.1.
44
Version 1.8.1 (2019-02-10)
45
* Client
46
** Only generate TLS keys using GnuTLS' certtool, of sufficient
47
   version.  Key generation of TLS keys will not happen until a
48
   version of GnuTLS is installed with support for raw public keys.
49
** Remove any bad keys created by 1.8.0 and openssl.
50
* Server
51
** On installation, edit clients.conf and remove the same bad key ID
52
   which was erroneously reported by all 1.8.0 clients.  Also do not
53
   trust this key ID in the server.
54

371 by Teddy Hogeborn
* Makefile (version): Change to 1.8.0.
55
Version 1.8.0 (2019-02-10)
56
* Client
57
** Use new TLS keys for server communication and identification.
58
   With GnuTLS 3.6 or later, OpenPGP keys are no longer supported.
59
   The client can now use the new "raw public keys" (RFC 7250) API
60
   instead, using GnuTLS 3.6.6.  Please note: This *requires* new key
61
   IDs to be added to server's client.conf file.
62
** New --tls-privkey and --tls-pubkey options to load TLS key files.
63
   If GnuTLS is too old, these options do nothing.
64
* Server
65
** Supports either old or new GnuTLS.
66
   The server now supports using GnuTLS 3.6.6 and clients connecting
67
   with "raw public keys" as identification.  The server will read
68
   both fingerprints and key IDs from clients.conf file, and will use
69
   either one or the other, depending on what is supported by GnuTLS
70
   on the system.  Please note: both are *not* supported at once; if
71
   one type is supported by GnuTLS, all values of the other type from
72
   clients.conf are ignored.

* Makefile (version): Change to 1.7.20.
74
Version 1.7.20 (2018-08-19)
75
* Client
76
** Fix: Adapt to the Debian cryptsetup package 2.0.3 or later.
77
   Important: in that version or later, the plugins "askpass-fifo",
78
   "password-prompt", and "plymouth" will no longer be run, since they
79
   would conflict with what cryptsetup is doing.  Other plugins, such
80
   as mandos-client and any user-supplied plugins, will still run.
81
** Better error message if failing to decrypt secret data
82
** Check for (and report) any key import failure from GPGME
83
** Better error message if self-signature verification fails
84
** Set system clock if not set; required by GnuPG for key import
85
** When debugging plugin-runner, it will now show starting plugins

176
   #816513)
177

208
** Bug fix: Be compatible with old 2048-bit DSA keys.
209
** The D-Bus API now provides the standard D-Bus ObjectManager
210
   interface, and deprecates older functionality.  See the DBUS-API
211
   file for the currently recommended API.  Note: the original API
212
   still works, but is deprecated.
213
* Client
214
** Can now find Mandos server even if the server has an IPv6 address
215
   on a network without IPv6 Router Advertisment (like if the Mandos
216
   client itself is the router, or there is an IPv6 router advertising
217
   a network other than the one which the Mandos server is on.)
218
** Use a better value than 1024 for the default number of DH bits.
219
   This better value is either provided by a DH parameters file (see
220
   below) or an appropriate number of DH bits is determined based on
221
   the PGP key.
222
** Bug fix: mandos-keygen now generates correct output for the
223
   "Checker" variable even if the SSH server on the Mandos client has
224
   multiple SSH key types.
225
** Can now use pre-generated Diffie-Hellman parameters from a file.

249

250
   secure than the default "fping" checker.

261
** Give better error messages when run without sufficient privileges
262
** Only warn if workaround for Debian bug #633582 was necessary and
263
   failed, not if it failed and was unnecessary.

* Server
311
** Takes new --foreground option
312
** Init script supports new "status" action.
313
* Client
314
** Now uses all interfaces by default; the --interface option can
315
   still be used to restrict it, and the argument to --interface (as
316
   well as the $DEVICE environment variable for the network hooks) is
317
   now a comma-separated list of interfaces to use.

352
Version 1.5.0 (2012-01-01)
353
* Client
354
** Network hooks.  The Mandos client can now run custom scripts to take
355
   up a network interface before the client is run.  Three example
356
   scripts are provided: "wireless", "openvpn", and "bridge".
357
   To facilitate this, the client now prefers network interfaces which
358
   are up (if any) over all other interfaces.
